There are a few ways to unarchive a post, which will be detailed below. First, you will need to tap the photo that you want to remove from the archive. Then, tap the ellipsis (&#8230;) icon next to the post, and then tap &#8220;Show on profile.&#8221; After you do this, your post will be visible to everyone, both public and friends only. You can comment on posts that you have unarchived, too, if you want them to appear on your profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Archiving_a_post\"><\/span>Archiving a post<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You may have noticed that your Instagram profile has a few old posts that you&#8217;d like to take down from your profile. Archiving posts on Instagram removes them from your main feed, but they are not completely removed. You can choose to re-post them at a later date if you wish. Archived posts still retain the likes and comments they received, so there&#8217;s no reason to delete them.<\/p>\n<p>To undo your archiving action, you can first go to your profile page. Tap on the &#8220;clock&#8221; icon at the top of your page, then tap on the &#8220;Archive&#8221; option. Once you&#8217;ve selected the post you&#8217;d like to archive, tap it to bring it back to life. If you&#8217;re concerned about losing any of your posts, archiving them is not the end of the world.<\/p>\n<p>To archive a post on Instagram, open your profile and select the post you&#8217;d like to remove. You can access your archive by tapping the three-dotted menu icon in the top right corner of your screen. Then, you can choose to view the archived content. To restore a deleted post, simply tap the arrow icon next to the corresponding post. If you have a previous version of the post, you can restore it by tapping on it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viewing_an_archived_post\"><\/span>Viewing an archived post<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Archived posts on Instagram can be viewed by you, but only if the original user has un-archived the post. The archive feature is an option that has been in beta testing for a few weeks, but is now available to everyone. To view an archived post, tap the three-dot menu at the top right corner of the profile screen. You can also view an archived post by tapping on the clock icon.<\/p>\n<p>This feature was introduced in April 2017, but has been slow to take off. It is a great tool for storing old posts on your account without deleting them completely. It lets you re-visit posts without the hassle of deleting them entirely, and keeps all the comments, including the original post date, safe on the Instagram servers. It will be available to more users over the next few months. Here are some tips on how to view an archived post on Instagram:<\/p>\n<p>First, you should understand why archived posts are private. By default, only the creator of an archived post can see it. If you delete an archived post, only the person who made it will see it. But you can always restore it by deleting it from your account and archiving it again. But keep in mind that you cannot share an archived post to your followers. If you want to share it with other users, you should delete the post first before you archive it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Removing_a_post_from_the_archive\"><\/span>Removing a post from the archive<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re feeling nostalgic for an old photo or video, you may want to remove it from your Instagram archive. The archive feature allows you to hide posts without permanently deleting them. If you have accidentally archived a post, you can easily remove it later. You can then revisit the post whenever you wish. But before you do so, make sure that you have the right permissions. Here are some steps for removing an Instagram post from the archive:<\/p>\n<p>First, open your Instagram account page. Go to the profile tab. Tap on your profile icon. Select the three horizontal lines icon on your profile page. Then, click on the switch next to the archive stories option. Choose the post that you want to remove. This will move the post back to your feed. If you accidentally removed a post from the archive, you can undo it to prevent it from being deleted again.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have made the decision to archive a post, you can remove it from the archive by following the same steps as you would to delete it. First, open the individual post you wish to archive. Next, click the three dots (&#8230;) on the top right of the post. Once you&#8217;ve done this, the post will be removed from your public profile. You can also restore the post if you&#8217;d like to publish it again.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"410\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"229\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M8KUvNTLPUk\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Unarchive Posts on Instagram If you have posted something that you later want to remove, you may be wondering how to unarchive it on Instagram.
