    Instagram Posts Image Display Fix

    Social

    ✨ What's Improved

    Fixed a critical issue where Instagram post images were not displaying correctly in the Posts viewer dialog.

    The Problem

    When viewing scraped Instagram posts, images appeared broken or failed to load entirely. This was caused by:

    • Incorrect field naming - The system was looking for localDisplayUrl but the field was named differently in storage
    • Path vs URL confusion - Storage paths were being stored instead of full public URLs
    • Missing video previews - Video post thumbnails weren't being saved correctly

    The Fix

    We updated the Instagram scraper to:

    • Store full public URLs for post images (post.localDisplayUrl)
    • Properly save video preview thumbnails (post.localVideoPreviewUrl)
    • Ensure consistent field naming between storage and display components

    How to Verify

    1. Navigate to any Brand Kit with connected Instagram profiles
    2. Open the Social Profiles section
    3. Click "View Posts" on any Instagram profile
    4. Confirm images now display correctly in the dialog
