Please log into your Instagram app on your mobile phone to see if there are any security messages you need to confirm. Post at least one image from your mobile phone to Instagram to make sure that this works.
If this still does not work out, please be so kind as to explain a little more in detail what kind of message you get when trying to connect Blog2Social with Instagram.

@blog2socialsupport – Hello, Thanks for your reply.
I already tried this a few times before I even posted here.
It doesn’t work at all. I am getting a message about a “foreign login” and I confirm, that it was me but the plugin cannot connect after confirming. In the meantime I posted a picture, tried again. Nothing happened.
I am getting the message that my login credentials are wrong, but both are working fine. I can login either via facebook or normal login. Facebook and insta login have different passwords of course. But both login credentials won’t work.
And I don’T get a secure code via email. This step already doesn’t work.
Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
Have you checked your spam filter for the security code. Some email programs tend to filter automatic messages.
To be able to connect Blog2Social to your Instagram account it is required to use the Instagram username (not your email-address) and the specific Instagram password. This will not work with your Facebook credentials.
If this still does not work, would you be so kind as to reset the password of your Instagram account so you have a dedicated password for this account.
You can do this easily by following this path in your browser:
Instagram -> Your account -> Sidebar Menu -> Settings -> Change Password -> Forgot Password. Here you can reset your password.
Please switch to Blog2Social afterwards and try to connect your Instagram account with the Instagram username and the Instagram password.
Please let me know if this works for you and don’t hesitate to get back to me if you have further questions.

@blog2socialsupport – There is no email in the spam folder or somewhere. The current password is the result of your suggestion to create a new password. I have created it yesterday before posting here. I typed and not copied the username (not email) and the password. But didn’t work either.
Hello,
Thank you for your reply.
It would be awesome if you could send me your Instagram account name so I would be able to look further into this for you.
Due to data security rules you can send me your account name here:

I’m looking forward to your reply.

@blog2socialsupport – don’t know why, because you cannot look into it with password etc. But I send the name.
