Proxy Server

Instant Images routes all API requests to service providers (Unsplash, Pexels, Pixabay, Openverse etc.) through our custom proxy server at proxy.getinstantimages.com.

Maintaining a proxy server for Instant Images allows us to keep API keys hidden from public view and ensures image data returned from the providers is returned in a normalized format for display in WordPress.

Working perfect in WP, but not in ClassicPress. I tested in CP 2.0 and it doesn't load, the loading gif is endless. P.S. ClassicPress is a modified version of WordPress (without Gutenberg)

Good job on this tool - very intuitive, and smooth operation to use it.

Hah, imagine I found about this plugin today for first time. And I was chasing around Google for royalty free images for years. For some reason other plugin, I will not mention name, has some strange cca 18 - 25 images limit. Maybe just my server, but this one is better. You can sort by portrait - horizontal orientation, very important. Here are more free images than I used to find combined on all websites searching in Google. Amazing.

This plugin gives you access to free public images that can be used either as placeholders for content or as the main images themselves. All you have to do is browse and pick what you want!

Instant Images is truly an outstanding plugin that has become an indispensable part of my web development toolkit. I incorporate it into every new website I create without hesitation. However, I'd like to share a couple of enhancement suggestions that, in my opinion, would take it to the next level: Universal Platform Compatibility: One notable improvement would be to ensure that the search functionality seamlessly works across all platforms. This would eliminate the need to switch between platforms, providing users with a more streamlined and efficient experience. Fullscreen Preview Feature: It would be immensely beneficial to incorporate a feature that allows users to view images in fullscreen mode before deciding to download them. This added functionality would enhance the overall user experience and assist in making more informed choices when selecting images. These enhancements would further elevate Instant Images, making it an even more essential tool for web developers like myself.
