Embedding on Wordpress

Post by mzoellner »

Hello - I tried to paste the embeded map code for a wordpress.com website, but it does not seem to work.
I can add an iframe for Google Maps on the wordpress site and blogger site, and I can embed your iframe code on a blogger site, but I can't do yours in a wordpress site.

Any ideas on how I can get this to work?

We have not tried to embed Map Pedometer maps on wordpress sites. Unfortunately, it appears that wordpress removes iframe code which is required to embed Map Pedometer maps on an external website.

You may use iframe shortcode to embed content from Google Maps or from any external page.

It will help you to embed iframe with this shortcode: [iframe width="640" height="480" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/3261363"] so now WordPress will not remove your iframe when you will switch from "HTML" to "Visual" tab in your editor.

If you still can't solve iframes check out more info here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ifr ... embed-code

I hope I had helped you.
