Description

I noticed that sometimes the images in an Instagram block with not display, if I try to view the img url it says "URL Signature Expired". This is obviously an issue with page caching. Instagram expires the images after a certain period of time. Would there be any way to use the Instagram block and full page caching at the same time? Perhaps I just need a shorter page cache time. Any suggestions?
