ℹ️ Introduction

Probably the most advanced but very simple to use <iframe> plugin for Bubble. An <iframe> element allows to "embed" an external website to the Bubble app.

Please note that some websites disable the ability to be shown in an iframe on an external website. As a quick example, you can't render google.com in your iframe.

🔥 Features

• Change the url dynamically without page reloads

• YouTube mode to embed URL of a YouTube video

• Set iframe's width/height dynamically

• Scroll bar control (show / hide)

• iframe's "sandbox" attribute control to securelly embed external pages (allow-downloads, allow-popups, allow-same-origin etc). Recommended for advanced users

• Setting title, id, class attributes

• Plugin fires events (when URL is invalid) so you can add custom error handling

📚 Documentation

Install the plugin, add an "iframe" element on your page, provide a URL and you should be able to see the external page embedded into your app!

For an advanced usage see below.

Fields

General settings

Option	Type	Description
URL	String
Scrolling	Dropdown
Fullscreen	Checkbox

Sandbox options

Sandbox attribute applies extra restrictions to the content in the frame.

More info: https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe

Option	Type	Description
allow-same-origin	Yes/No	If this token is not used, the resource is treated as being from a special origin that always fails the same-origin policy (potentially preventing access to data storage/cookies and some JavaScript APIs).
allow-downloads	Yes/No	Allows for downloads to occur with a gesture from the user.
allow-forms	Yes/No	Allows the resource to submit forms. If this keyword is not used, form submission is blocked.
allow-modals	Yes/No	Lets the resource open modal windows.
allow-popups	Yes/No	Allows popups (such as window.open(), target="_blank", or showModalDialog()). If this keyword is not used, the popup will silently fail to open.
allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox	Yes/No	Lets the sandboxed document open new windows without those windows inheriting the sandboxing. For example, this can safely sandbox an advertisement without forcing the same restrictions upon the page the ad links to.
allow-scripts	Yes/No	Lets the resource run scripts (but not create popup windows).
allow-top-navigation	Yes/No	Lets the resource navigate the top-level browsing context (the one named _top).

Advanced settings

Option	Type	Description
Title	String	People navigating with assistive technology such as a screen reader can use the title attribute on an to label its content. The title's value should concisely describe the embedded content
ID	String	Add an ID attribute to the iframe
Class	String	Space-separated iframe classes. Example: "myclass1 myclass2"
Do not show alerts	Checkbox	Remove the default plugin alert popups (when the provided URL is not correct)
YouTube URL	Checkbox	Choose this option if your URL is a YouTube video. This will automatically add some YouTube-specific attributes

Events

• "Incorrect URL" event: fires when the provided URL is not correct. In combination with the "Do not show alerts" field it allows you to build a custom error handling (show an error message in a different language etc)!
