Live preview customizer
Design made simple
The live preview customizer is a great way to see exactly how each and every change you make will impact your feed before you place it anywhere on your site.
No more back and forth between screens to preview your changes, just design them and watch the preview change on the fly.
Customization options
Customize the look and feel of your feed in seconds. Spotlight offers many customization options – everything from the number of columns to the color of your buttons. The defaults look great, but you can tweak it to match your style.
Live preview
Your feed is always in full view thanks to Spotlight’s live preview. Every change you make is instantly reflected in the preview area.
‘Follow’ and ‘Load more’ buttons
Add a “Follow” button to your feed to turn website visitors into Instagram followers. If you want to entice them with more than just a few Instagram posts, use the “Load more” button to keep them browsing without leaving your site.
Reponsiveness Options
Spotlight feeds are responsive by default, but you can tweak the design and feel of your Instagram feed per device with the click of a button.
Switch between desktop, tablet, and phone views in the editor to create a unique feed for every device.
This plugin strongly helps me to increase the interaction on my Instagram account from my website. I didn’t need to watch 100 tutorials to be able to handle the plugin correctly.
After fiddling with a couple of other plugin options for IG feeds, I installed Spotlight and had it working in seconds. The design is modern, clean and easy to understand. Really great product!

Filtering & moderation
Only show the photos and videos you want

Hashtag filtering
A great way to showcase a hashtag campaign or to just feature posts that use a specific hashtag (or more than one). Likewise, hide posts with unwanted hashtags.
Global filtering
Aside from the feed-level filters, set up global filters that can be applied to all feeds on your site. They act the same way as feed filters and can be turned on or off per feed.
Visual moderation
Get picky. Hand-select the photos and videos that you want to show or hide in any feed. Choose the moderation option and just click on the posts you want (or don’t want).
Promote anything through your Instagram feed
Link Instagram posts to WooCommerce products, blog posts & more
Drive traffic to your blog
Uploading Instagram photos for every blog post you publish on your site? Set up a replica Instagram feed on your website that has each photo link directly to its blog post, then add a “Link in bio” to Instagram.
Generate new leads
Sharing photos of your client work on Instagram? Have your website’s Instagram feed link to the service, portfolio, case study, or testimonial in each photo to drive conversions through social proof.
Boost e-commerce sales
Create a “Shop Instagram” page or add a hashtag (or tagged post) feed to your WooCommerce site to feature clients using or wearing your products. Link each post to the product to boost your sales.
Automate it!
