      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!
