Loved this plugin but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be working for video posts
on Instagram – at least, not alongside the Avada theme

Exactly what I needed – had to change the line of code to get it to work, but very
easy, thank you!

the plugin is not working for me either, I can confirm it was really handy before,
but now after 4.4, even after changing the line190, it just wont work. Simply embedding
wordpress was working (not even shortcoding), but need to make this work again for
customisation
