#34651 closed enhancement (fixed)

Instagram URLs with www will not embed

Reported by: kevmarsden's profile kevmarsden Owned by: pento's profile pento
Milestone: 4.4 Priority: normal
Severity: normal Version: 4.3.1
Component: Embeds Keywords: has-patch

Description

Instagram URLs with the 'www' subdomain will not create an embed. Once the 'www' is removed from an Instagram URL, the embed is created.

It would be nice to support URLs that contain 'www' because when viewing Instagram from a web browser (while logged in), Instagram uses the 'www' subdomain throughout the site.

Example image on Instagram:

Apparently Instagram is now forwarding (301 moved permanently) to www.instagram.com when opening instagram.com URLs. IMO this fix should land on 4.4.
