Add Instagram Mentions to React
Learn how to import Instagram Mentions into VideoTestimonials and show them on your React website with a Wall of Love you can embed or link to. Step-by-step guide.
Why Instagram Mentions Matter for Your Business

Show Them on React

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add Instagram Mentions to my React website?
Import your Instagram Mentions from the Import page in your VideoTestimonials dashboard, keep the ones you want, and they appear on your Wall of Love. Then embed the Wall of Love on your React site with its embed code (an iframe), or link to its public URL. The React integration page lists the exact steps for React.
Do Instagram Mentions update automatically on React?
Not automatically. Auto-Import doesn't cover Instagram, so new ones are added when you import them. Your Wall of Love on React updates as soon as you approve them, with no change to your React site.
Can I customize how Instagram Mentions look on React?
Yes. In the Wall of Love builder you choose the layout (grid, masonry, bento, 3D carousel or marquee), the card style, colors and fonts to match your React site, and which reviews to show.
Will adding Instagram Mentions slow down my React site?
The Wall of Love embeds as an iframe, which the browser loads separately, so it doesn't block the rest of your React page from rendering. If the wall sits further down the page, add loading="lazy" to the iframe tag so it loads only when visitors scroll near it.
