Title: Embed a page into a block?
Post by: Itchigo on June 18, 2014, 11:12:56 AM
I'd like to do something like this, but not necessarily this site/link. This is a screenshot from another site (not SMF), but it shows what I'd like to do. I'd like to make a "newsblock" of sorts.

I have a youtube working in a block but I don't know about a page/site.

Can I just alter what I have for the youtube block?

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/hNOqMcIccDk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

You can embed an iframe in an html block.  Have you tried it?

I don't know what that is or how to do it. (Yet). ;)

Create new block -- custom html
Read about how to use iframe tag http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp


See how you like the result.

Enjoy!

Thanks, I got part of it working.

Maybe off topic but is there a way to make my bottom block the width of the forum? I don't see an option for it in configuration.

Use the footer block instead of bottom block. That will go full width.
