How to display hashtag feeds

IN THIS ARTICLE
Contents

Spotlight has the option of displaying Instagram posts that use any hashtag all over Instagram, not just in posts from accounts that you own.

IMPORTANT: In order to display posts that use specific hashtags, Spotlight requires the use of an Instagram Business account and a valid Spotlight Pro license. There are also some limitations imposed by Instagram’s API that can be found here.

Here’s how to add hashtag posts to any feed:

  1. Add a new feed or edit an existing one.
  2. On the
    Connect step, go to the
    Show posts with these hashtags section.
  3. Enter the hashtag you want posts for, choose between
    Most recent or
    Most popular posts, then click on the
    Add button. 
  4. The
    live preview will then be automatically updated with posts using those hashtags.

That’s it. You can now go on to design your feed or embed it right away.

Note: Each hashtag can be edited or removed at any time, as seen below.
