Hi,
I updated to the Newspaper version from 4 May through ftp. Unfortunately, my Instagram counter in the footer 3 – Widget – TagDiv Social Counter (Volg ons / Follow us) doesn’t work. It shows 6, but we have 21 followers. How to solve?
Please check http://www.next.blue and instagram account nextbluephotos.
Thanks
Hi,
If you have the latest theme version the Instagram related elements will work. In all cases until now post update Instagram issues were related to some form of caching. Access the caching plugin settings and clear the cache. Check if this solves the problem. Try changing the Instagram ID as a test

Then revert to your own ID – https://www.screencast.com/t/gGyFciFD1si
Let us know if there is still a problem.
Thanks
Thanks for your feedback. It still doesn’t work.
My theme is updated to the 4 May version 8.7.4. I deleted cache via the WP Super Cache plugin; changed the instagram id to BBC and the social icon in my footer 3 links to the BBC account, but shows 0.
Hope you can help.
Did you update the plugin as well? the social counter is now version 4.4. If you use the latest plugin version and it still does not work, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login so we can take a look. Include a link to this topic in the email.
Hello,
In wp_option the line “td_011_remote_cache” is 450.000 characters long for me. The old records from Social counter 4.2 or so are still there and refuse to expire.
Trying to bypass cache from
public function get_social_counter($service_id, $user_id, $access_token = ”)
by
private function get_service_data($service_id, $user_id, $access_token)
gets infinite load and crash:
case ‘instagram’:
$td_data = td_remote_http::get_page(“http://instagram.com/$user_id#”, __CLASS__);
Maybe it fails for https://www.instagram.com/aurelvirlan/ where I should have 269 followers but it keeps showing 0.
So how to clear the cache by force? It’s normal to have such a big cache for a few pages website?
Thank you
@aurelvirlan Send us an email with the mentioned information and we will take a look. Remember to include a link to this topic in the email.
Hi there, i’ve got the same problem with Instagram, as well as Facebook. I’ve cleared my cache, uploaded the latest plugin version, but nothing seems to work. Funny enough it does show Twitter followers.
Any thoughts on what to do?
TIA.
@Emigrerengrancanaria If the latest theme version is used (8.7.4) as well as the latest plugin version, then there should be no problem.
Simply be sure to configure Facebook with a valid ID

If you click the link in the counter on your website it should lead to the account page, click on the Facebook in the social counter in the live demo

We could take a look if you could provide a link to your website.
Hi there,
Thanks for getting back to me! Sure, the link to my blog is: https://www.emigrerengrancanaria.com
I installed the latest version and also all the plugins that came with the update. FIY: Instagram is now working as well.
The problem seems to be with the Facebook page. Also, I no longer have to validate with my FB secret key etc..
TIA for your help!

Hi,
Seems the count is not quite accurate for Facebook (500 vs 540 fans). The plugin should synchronize every three hours.
This process could be affected by caching. You could try clearing the cache, go into the WP Super Cache settings and clear it, or press the admin bar delete cache button

Let us know the results.
Thanks
Hi there,
I’ve cleared my cache many, many times, but unfortunately I didn’t seem to help straight away. I just checken my blog again and for some reason, suddenly the Social Counter is working correctly 🙂
Thank you very much for you support.
Also, very satisfied with the theme!
ho installato la versione 8.7.3 del tema, e quando provo a configurare il contatore di Facebook (TagDiv Social Counter), pur seguendo tutti i passaggi, non funziona. Il Link rimanda alla pagina, ma non mi da il conteggio (www.farbas.it) (https://www.facebook.com/FarBasilicata/). Se carico uno script con il Raw html, spariscono le pagine e anche il menĂą. Sono disperato. Come posso risolvere? Graize per la risposta

@pinodigilio Please try to use the latest version of the theme (8.7.4) and social counter plugin (4.4). There will be no problem and also it will be easier to configure the counter
