How Social Counter works?

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello,

I did not understand how the Social Counter works.
Does it show the number of Twitter, Instagram followers and Youtube followers only if you write them manually?

Can it do this automatically?
Or do I need to change this amount manually every time?

If so, it would be at least strange.

Hello,

You must connect your accounts in the Theme panel -> social/APIs after setting the social ids. Please check those guides

Doesn’t work.

Resolved. Thanks.

AS I understand, I can’t add this Instagram profile https://www.instagram.com/birgit.wetzel/ to show my followers, because your social counter can show the Instagram Page only not profile followers?

Hi,

Ok, I did it.
And it shows 0 followers.
Whey?

It seems @ is wrong, because this page isn’t available.

And without @ link is ok but followers are still 0.

Are you sure, it works with Instagram simple account and doesn’t need instagram business account?

Ok, I will do it right now, but are you sure, it really works with Instagram simple profiles and doesn’t need the business accounts only?

This is what I was talking about.
This plugin does not work with Instagram profile followers.

You must convert the Instagram account to a business profile to work with the social counter plugin.
