Posting Instagram Photos Automatically

by

You’ll probably have to do your own integration, but here’s how I would approach it:

  1. Grab an Instagram PHP wrapper: http://www.mauriciocuenca.com/blog/2011/02/instagram-api-implementation-in-php/ OR http://instaphp.com OR https://github.com/cosenary/Instagram-PHP-API
  2. Authenticate via an admin option page
  3. Iterate through your user images using the /users/self/feed method
  4. Use the media_sideload_image() function found in wp-admin/includes/media.php to download the images
  5. Keep a running cache of downloaded Instagram image IDs in an option to check before downloading an image.

If you want this to work as a WordPress gallery, you could assign a specific post ID to media_sideload_image and then include a gallery on that post.

It seems pretty straightforward. Check out the API documentation for self/feed: http://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/
