 * Hi
 * The plugin stated that we needed to renew the token. Pushed the reset button,
   tried to login into Instagram we get the following error messages:
 * error_type “OAuthException”
    code 400 error_message “Invalid scope field(s): 
   public_content”
 * We have tried everything – disabled plugin and enabled the plugin / logged into
   Instagram first tried again and the same thing / logged out, tried it again and
   the same thing.
 * The plugin is up-to-date – we are using the free version.
 * Thanks, Carl

 * Hello Carl,
 * Please try this way, please enter Instagram feed > settings > advanced > and 
   uninstall the plugin, then please install again, authenticate and try to create
   and publish the feed again, this way it should work OK.
