For standalone Instagram Feed and Custom Facebook Feed users

The replacement for your standalone feed works on any website

We no longer update the standalone PHP versions. TileSet, also made by Smash Balloon, does the same job with nothing on your server. Google reviews, YouTube, X and more connect today, and Instagram and Facebook follow once Meta approves.

Free plan, no card needed. On WordPress? Switch to our plugins instead.

What changed

The standalone versions are discontinued

The standalone Instagram Feed and Custom Facebook Feed ran as a PHP script on your own server. We stopped updating them, and Instagram and Facebook keep changing their APIs, so a script nobody maintains will stop loading your posts sooner or later.

If your site runs on WordPress, switch to our Instagram Feed or Custom Facebook Feed plugin. If it doesn't, TileSet does the same job without anything on your server. It fetches your feed, keeps a copy and serves the widget for you.

Instagram and Facebook join TileSet as soon as Meta approves our app review. Everything else on this page works today.

Google reviews

Your star rating and newest reviews, found by searching for your business or pasting a Maps link.

YouTube

The latest videos from your channel. A new upload shows up on your site without you touching it.

X

Recent posts from your account, styled to sit with the rest of your page.

Pinterest

Pins from your profile or from a single board.

Bluesky and Mastodon

Posts from your Bluesky handle or your Mastodon account.

Blogs and podcasts

Any RSS or Atom feed, so a Substack, a Medium blog or a podcast works too.

1

Connect a source

Create a free TileSet account, then search for your business or paste a link to your channel or profile.

TileSet's Add a source panel: a search for Flour & Fern finds its Google reviews, ready to connect. Below are YouTube, X, Pinterest, Bluesky, RSS and Twitch, with Instagram marked Soon.

2

Pick a layout

Choose a grid, carousel, masonry or bento layout, then set the theme, gap and corner radius to match your site.

3

Paste one snippet

Copy one script tag and one div into your page, where the old feed was. From then on the feed updates itself.

Waiting for Instagram? Leave your email on TileSet’s roadmap and you get one email the day it opens.

What you get over the standalone version

Works on the builder you already use

The standalone version needed PHP. TileSet works on Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, Framer, Odoo or a page you coded by hand. If you can paste HTML into it, it can show a TileSet widget.

A Google reviews widget next to its status: signed in for you, updates by itself, and the last good reviews stay up if Google is down.

No script to host, no tokens to renew

The standalone version ran on your server with an access token you renewed by hand. TileSet keeps the connection signed in for you, and if a platform is down, your widget keeps showing its last good posts for up to 30 days.

Instagram and Facebook are on the way

Meta reviews every app that reads Instagram and Facebook, and TileSet's review is in progress. Your feeds can connect as soon as it is approved.

Create your free account now and add another source in the meantime, such as your Google reviews.

Questions from standalone users

Will my standalone version keep working?

It gets no more updates or fixes. Each time Instagram or Facebook changes its API, an unmaintained script is more likely to stop showing posts, so we recommend moving now rather than after it breaks.

When can I connect Instagram and Facebook?

As soon as Meta approves TileSet's app review, which is in progress. Create a free account now and you can add Instagram the day it opens.

Do I need WordPress?

No. TileSet works on any site where you can paste HTML. If your site does run WordPress, our Instagram Feed and Custom Facebook Feed plugins are the better fit.

What does TileSet cost?

The free plan holds 3 live sources and 60 credits a month, and views of your widgets are never charged. On the free plan a feed updates at most once a day, and X once a week. Paid plans start at $9 a month and update more often, most sources as often as every hour.
