Starting October 24, Facebook has dropped support for unauthenticated WordPress embeds. Thus, if you’re embedding Facebook and Instagram content on your Quizier site, they’ll break.

             

More specifically, the old Facebook oEmbed endpoints are being replaced by new ones that require authentication via Facebook. As Facebook owns Instagram, the same requirements apply for Instagram oEmbed endpoints too.


In this article, we’ll cover how to update Quizier Facebook and Instagram oEmbed endpoints.


Let’s get ready!

To get a Client Access Token, sign into your App Dashboard and navigate to Settings > Advanced > Security > Client Token. Copy the Client Token field and enter under Quizier oEmbed tab, another thing you want to do is enter your website IP address in Server IP Allow List as shown in below screenshot.
