# Instagram feed on your website

The Instagram section on your website does not pull in your photos automatically. To show a live feed, the section needs a widget that is connected to your Instagram account.

**Recommended widget.** The most reliable way to run a live Instagram feed on your website is an Elfsight Instagram Feed widget (https://elfsight.com/instagram-feed-instashow/). Elfsight has a free tier to start. Create the widget under your own Elfsight account, since the widget authenticates against your Instagram login.

**Setting it up.**

1. Create the Instagram Feed widget in your own Elfsight account.
2. Copy the widget's embed code.
3. Send the embed code to your support team so they can place it in the Instagram section of your site.

Still stuck? [Contact the HomeRunner team](https://homerunner.io/contact/) with your site address and what you tried, and we take it from there.
