Cant connect to Instagram account

[AfroCentralShop]

I'm still having the same problem and have never been able to connect.

I'm not even seeing any connection attempts under Login Activity. I am typing my password and username, I've logged out of all instances of Instagram, even on my phone. My Instagram profile is complete (4 green ticks). Not sure what the problem is?

Hey Alexander,
I tried al the solutions in FAQ about connecting to instagram and also how you suggested, but I still can't connect to my instagram.

I even switched my instagram account from business to personal to see if it works on personal connection; however, it didn't work either.
PS. I checked my fb page is connected to the same instagram account.
The only message I saw is to contact the support team.

Btw, my. instagram account is scentelixir

Hey Alexander,
I checked again as you suggested, and confirmed that my facebook page (@scentelixir) is already connected with my business instagram account (also @scentelixir) .
As to the error message, please see the attached screenshots.

*If there is only thing that may be concerned, originally I set my instagram account as business account, but switched back to a personal one before I connected it to Blog2social. But it didn't work, so I switched it to business account again and then activated 30-days free trial, and tried to connected it as a business account.

Thanks for your reply.

Tsung Tao
But it didn't work either.

[Blog2Social]

Hello Tsung Tao,

Thank you for getting back to us.

If you switched your Instagram account from business to personal and then again back to business, this could be the reason why you still cannot connect your account.
However, I am sure we will get you connected.

Let’s try the following steps:
Please be so kind as to wait a day or two, because it could be the case that your account will be blocked and reviewed by Instagram due to the double switch.
Log out of Facebook and Instagram.
Also please make sure to clear your cache.
Log in again to make sure you are logged in with your valid Facebook and Instagram business settings.
Follow the steps above to connect your Instagram business account with Blog2Social.

Please let us know if this helps to get you going.

Thank you for your patience.

Best regards

Hi Alexander,

Thanks for your reply.

I've never been able to connect or use Blog2Social, so what do you mean by removing it from my networks overview?

Please advise.

Thanks.

Hi Alexander,

I'm still waiting for your response on why I need to reset? More than 10 days now....

Why would I opt to pay for a plugin when the basic version of it doesn't work and I can't even test if the functionality is what I need?

A response would be appreciated.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply and sorry for the delay.

Please note that the current issue that you are facing with connecting this individual Instagram account is not update-related.

Instagram has a very complex algorithm for monitoring shared posts in relation to content and posting behavior. Instagram aims to ensure keeping communication on the network on a personal and human basis. The Instagram algorithm can be triggered by varying indicators, regardless of whether you post automatically or manually. The algorithm does not care about auto-posting, but it does notice actions that are unlikely to do from a phone. Likewise, the Instagram algorithm can influence the visibility of posts and its reach. The visibility of the post in hashtags in Instagram can also be influenced by the Instagram algorithm.

It can happen that Instagram temporarily marks, bans, or suspends your account or your posts if any of the Instagram filter mechanisms are triggered.

If you’ve just started using Instagram or created a new account, make sure to show some form of active human engagement, before starting to share a post by using social media automation. Use your mobile app to share a few photos once or twice a day for a couple of days. Follow some people likely to follow back, like, share, and comment on their images, so Instagram can identify your account as human. Set up your posting and scheduling strategy like you would do it from a phone. Also, make sure to engage on Instagram regularly to give your Instagram account a human and sociable appearance. Stay in touch with your Instagram community on a regular and personal basis and stay social.

After preparing your account and allowing some time for a cool down in order to lift any mark from Instagram on your account you can retry to connect your account.

The following step-by-step guide will show you how to solve common Instagram connecting issues:
How do I connect Blog2Social with Instagram?

If this also fails it's just an issue with that individual account. You could try to use another personal Instagram account or you can also consider converting your Personal Instagram Profile into a Business Account in order to benefit from many additional features in Instagram. The only requirement is a Facebook Page to which you can connect your Instagram Business account.

The following guide will show you, how to convert your Personal Profile:
How to convert your Personal Instagram Profile into a Business Account.

Connecting a Facebook page can be done from within Facebook or directly in Instagram. The following guide will show you how to easily connect your Instagram Business Account with your Facebook page step by step: How to connect your Instagram Business Account with your Facebook page.

After you have checked and configured these two requirements, you can now connect your Instagram business account with Blog2Social. You can find out how to do this in the guide: How can I connect Blog2Social to my Instagram Business Account?.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions about Blog2Social.


Thank you for your understanding.
