Embed Twitter and Instagram feeds directly

Since social media is being used a lot to upload videos, here's some tips so you can know how to embed the videos you find on either Instagram or Twitter and want to post them here.

Instagram: You copy the url of the video in question, like: https://www.instagram.com/p/BXioMXjj3NU/...=londolozi

And then you insert it in between here: [insta][/insta]

So it looks like this:
Code:
[insta]https://www.instagram.com/p/BXioMXjj3NU/?taken-by=londolozi[/insta]

Twitter: For Twitter it is almost the same process. Copy the url of the video: https://twitter.com/twitter/statuses/925679434484633600

And insert it in between this: [tweet][/tweet]

So it looks like this: 
Code:
[tweet]https://twitter.com/twitter/statuses/925679434484633600[/tweet]

Don't leave spaces, otherwise the video won't show.

Dude, just write [insta]...[/insta] on both sides of the link & it'd be embedded here. [tweet]...[/tweet] for Twitter posts.
 
I did that it dosen't work


That's strange. I've been fixing your posts, works well then...

Don't use this URL sharing button though.

Just paste the URL & manually add the rest on both sides.
Your code should look like this:


Although you might see something like this:

I don't know why that happens but just refresh the page & it should fix itself. Let me know if you have any other problem.

(If you feel there should be a button for embedding, mention that here: The Good and Bad about Wildfact.  
You should've told about this problem, that's why this thread was created.)

Before inserting these tags or any other advance tag... I suggest to use last button (view source mode). This avoid unnecessary markups during writing posts with advance elements

I have tried to put [insta] and [/insta] between the links. But it does not work. I think it has something to do with me being iPad user
