FAQs

Do I need any coding skills to use Spotlight?

No. We’ve built Spotlight to give you all the customization options you may need in a point-and-click interface. If you do know a bit of CSS and wish to customize it further, Spotlight uses a number of classes throughout the feed display that you can style further.

Built using the same technologies as Netflix and Instagram, we avoid iFrames and other hacks to make sure performance isn’t impacted. Dynamic loading is applied to make sure your page-loading times before and after installation are practically the same, both on the front-end and the back-end.

Yes, although Spotlight’s premium plans add a lot more value, there is also a free version that can display a basic version of your Instagram feed on any WordPress website.

No, at the moment Spotlight is a WordPress plugin and only works on WordPress sites.

Absolutely. Whether you’re a freelancer or an agency, Spotlight can be used on your own sites and client sites.

The main concern for clients is sharing login details. That’s why we created our own Access Token Generator so your clients can safely provide the access you need to connect their Instagram account without sharing any passwords.

The Agency plan is your ideal solution since it offers a 20-site license to get started with right out of the box.

Instagram does sometimes have trouble with its service, so Spotlight uses its own clever caching system to make sure your feeds are always backed up and visible to site visitors, even when there are issues out of our (or your) control. All media is optimized and saved locally on your website to make sure it’s a seamless experience.
