Embedded object (iframe)

To embed a video, music track, or any other interactive object hosted on a third-party resource, use the iframe block.

The iframe block requires a link for embedding media on external resources. These links are usually referred to as the "Embed code" or "HTML code".

Example

To embed a YouTube video, use a link that looks like this:

https://www.youtube.com/embed/oCRQj_zyPjk

To obtain a link, select Share → Embed under the video and copy the src parameter value.

Only objects from the allowed domains can be embedded on Wiki pages.

Embedding an object

  1. On the toolbar, click iframe.

  2. In the Link field, paste the URL of an external object.

  3. Set the block size in pixels.

  4. Click Save.

  5. To edit the iframe block, switch to the page editing mode, hover over the block, and click → Edit.

    Parameters of the iframe block:

    • URL to embed the external object.
    • Block size in pixels.
    • Display of scrollbars (enabled if set to yes; disabled if set to no; if set to auto, enabled automatically depending on the size of the object inside the block).
    • Permission settings for embedded content, such as access to location data or media playback. All permissions are granted by default.
    • Block border.

To add an iframe block with an embedded object, insert code into your text formatted as follows:

/iframe/(src="https://example.com" width="300" height="100" frameborder="0" scrolling="yes" allow="geo")

Parameters of the iframe block:

  • src: URL to embed the external object.

The Wiki administrator can add up to 10 domains of their choice to the list of those already allowed by default.


How to add a domain

  1. In the left panel, click Administration.
  2. Go to Allowed domains.
  3. If there are no allowed domains yet, click Add domain in the center of the screen.
    To add another domain, click Add at the bottom of the list.
  4. Enter the site domain without the protocol, for example example.com.
    If the site has subdomains (ru.example.com or en.example.com) and all of them should be included in the list of allowed domains, add the * character at the beginning of the domain name, for example *.example.com.
  5. Add a comment about how you plan to use the information from this resource on wiki pages. Other Wiki administrators will see this comment.
  6. Click Add.

Now you can use content from these sites in the «iframe» block on wiki pages.

To remove a domain from the list, click to the right of it and confirm the action.

If the page does not display, then the domain prohibits embedding.
