Description
### Impacted plugin
Jetpack
### What
I would like the Instagram Latest Post Block Always Show Images in Square Shape
### How
Sometimes, the block doesn't show all images in square shape, it seems to be dependent on the images uploaded to Instagram. If in a particular row, the images are originally uploaded in portrait orientation, then the block will show them in portrait as well.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Find the Latest Instagram Posts Block entry point in Jetpack and reproduce the issue with Instagram images in portrait orientation. Trace how image dimensions are presented in a row, then verify that non-square images consistently render in the requested square presentation, using either cropping or black bars as appropriate.
