    Hi together,
    I'm just wondering, why there is a third-party-connection to instagram loading some javascript? What is its effect?
    Seems to be this one here: https://platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js

    I deactivated it with adding some code to functions.php:

    function wp_dequeue_instagram() {
        wp_dequeue_script( 'vendor-instagram' );
        wp_deregister_script( 'vendor-instagram' );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'wp_dequeue_instagram', 100 );
    

    Until now I am not experiencing any issues with this deactivated connection. But nevertheless I would like to know, why it has been implemented so?

    Cheers!
    Sebastian

        Dear @mariusjopen

        I just found out, that you implemented a checkbox (See Lay Options -> Other -> Embed Instagram JavaScript) in one of the last updates, to not embed the instagram javascript code. So first my wp_dequeue_instagram is not needed anymore and second I know now, that the js is needed to embed instagram stuff.

        Thanks anyway!

          Before you post:
          1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
          2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
          3. Disable all Plugins
          4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

          This often solves issues you might run into

          When you post:
          1. Post a link to where the problem is
          2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
          3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
