How to Use iFrames with WordPress
Sunday, September 05, 2010
WordPress doesn't like iframes but there is a way to get these two to play nicely together. Sometimes you need to use iframes because an ad you are placing on your site uses it or maybe a chatroom plugin or the ShopStyle widget (if you are a fashion blogger or write about any kind of fashion).If you just put the iframe code in the post (always in the HTML view) and then try to view it WordPress strips the code out and it won't work.
To get the iframe code to work with WordPress you need to install a plug-in called Insere Iframe
From your WordPress Dashboard, click Plugins from the Sidebar to find and install this plugin.
Or you can go to the WordPress Plugin page here and download it. Then go to the Plugin area on your WordPress Dashboard and upload it.
After you activate this plugin here is how to use it.
1. Open or create a new post.
2. Click the HTML tab and then paste your iframe code wherever you want it to show
3. Locate >iframe and replace it with [iframe:
4. Locate ></frame> and replace all of that with a ]
That's it. Now your iframe code will remain intact within the WordPress post or sidebar widget.
