What you did
- Installed
gatsby-remark-embedder. - Added it to the
pluginsarray ofgatsby-transformer-remark.
Didn't show embedded post properly.
- Installed
gatsby-plugin-instagram-embed. - Added it to the
pluginsarray forgatsby.
Still didn't show embedded post properly.
What happened
Instead of showing the embedded Instagram photo, it showed a blank Instagram block that said View this post on Instagram.
Reproduction repository
Not a 100% minimal reproduction, but it's the very beginnings of a gatsby site using gatsby-source-filesystem and remark to transform the markdown.

Problem description
On any blog post that includes an Instagram embed (example), the embedded post doesn't actually show the image, but it states View this post on Instagram.
Suggested solution
None at this time.
@bradgarropy Since the Instagram transformer is using the official Instagram oembed endpoint
gatsby-remark-embedder/src/transformers/Instagram.js
Lines 18 to 21 in f9c510e
And since you're seeing the same whenever you're using
gatsby-plugin-instagram-embed or not, I think this is a bug in that plugin.
I haven't checked it out myself, so I'll try to dig a bit deeper asap.
Great observation!
For reference, here is the Instagram embed that is produced after the gatsby build command.

</blockquote>Updated the page with a few more examples.
Even copying the embed code directory from Instagram, I still get the same output.
@bradgarropy have you tried copying the script too? 🤔
Just tried that as well. I copied the embed html directly from Instagram's website, and removed the src attribute from the <script> tag.
Then I grabbed the embed.js from https://www.instagram.com/embed.js and inserted it into the <script> tag in Instagram's embed markup.
You can see the result here.
This strengthens my though that it's probably something in gatsby-plugin-instagram-embed that's causing this bug.
Maybe @jlengstorf can help us take a look at the problem.
Okay, seeing some interested behavior.
Local
Nothing works at all.
No Network calls are being made to fetch embed.js.
Deployed
Client side route changes do not work.
No Network calls are being made to fetch embed.js.
However, refreshing the /blog/instagram page properly loads up the embed.js code an displays the images.
One thing to note, I am using gatsby-plugin-layout, which could have an effect on the different behavior we're seeing with route changes.
@bradgarropy Could you create a minimal reproduction only using the necessary plugins to have a page with Instagram embeds please? 🤔
Here's a suuuuper simple reproduction.
Hmmm the issue still occurs, so I think it's something inside of gatsby-plugin-instagram-embed that's wrong. 😕
Will try to take a look at it later this week if I have some time, but maybe @jlengstorf has a clue on how to fix this one.
This issue is still occurring for me, impossible to make it work.
@adrienlefebvre92 Can you get it to work if you add the script tag manually in the page? 🤔
After upgrading these modules, I no longer saw the issue.
