The Instagram Basic Display API, which powers version 2.0 of TZ Plus Gallery, uses access tokens that are only valid 60 days.
This means that you will need a server-side component to keep your access token valid in order for TZ Plus Gallery to work correctly.
There are currently 2 available options for keeping access tokens valid:
Instagram Token Agent
Instant-tokens.com
Instant-tokens.com
Instant-tokens.com is a website that generates & refreshes Instagram access tokens. It is provided for free by Coding Badger, and is easy to integrate with Instafeed.js.
Pros:
Free to use
No setup required, just sign in with your Instagram account.
Cons:
Closed-source
Owned & operated by 3rd party (Coding Badger)
Instagram Token Agent
Instagram Token Agent is an open-source Ruby-on-Rails application written by Ben Hull, and available on GitHub. It can be quickly deployed to Heroku, or any other Rails-compatible hosting mechanism.
Pros:
Open-source
Fully controllable by you
Cons:
Requires some setup (e.g. creating Facebook API keys, deploying application)
Relies on a Sandbox developer account (unless you can get approval from Facebook), which has some limitations.
