How to Add Your Latest Instagram Photos to Your Blogger Sidebar

I love Instagram! I've only just started using it but i'm hooked on it (my username is fayemarieblogs in case you were wondering). Wordpress has dozens of plugins for adding your latest photos to your sidebar but the same can't be said of Blogger. So I went on a hunt for a way for Blogger users to add their latest photos to their sidebar and hooray I found one.

Snap Widget generates the code for you and you just add it as a HTML widget on your Blogger layout page.

Go to Snap Widget

Fill in your details like below:


It will generate a snippet of code, you just need to copy the code and paste it into a HTML widget in Blogger.

 

You'll then be left with your instagram photos displayed in your sidebar.

 



The beauty of this site is that it lets you choose your background and select how many pics show both horizontally and diagonally.

feel free to leave your Instagram username in the comments section. I need more people to follow!

  4. When you click on the Instagram photos on the blog, it takes you to SnapWidget, not Instagram. How do you redirect to Instagram?
