Displaying iFrames in MODx?

I have an iFrame I need to put in my resource. For some reason it is not displaying. After I submit it, I go back and look at the HTML, and it’s gone. Any idea if there is a work around on this? Thank you!

If you mean in the source of the Resource, then it’s likely getting stripped by mod_security or a similar extension configured on your web server.

Yes, sorry. The source of the resource. IS there a way around this by chance? Thank you!

either try disabling RichText for that ressource ( i use iframes on one site with RichText turned off and it’s working ), or go to :
"Elements" -> "Manage Elements" -> "Plugins" -> "TinyMCE Rich Text Editor" -> "Configuration" -> "Cleanup" -> disabled ( but test this setting beforehand, use cautiously )

there’s also the View Port Widget for TVs ... it will output an iframe ( haven’t used it yet, you need to search the forum posts for that )

edit: ...maybe you could also test creating a chunk with the iframe code and placing it in your content field

Sharkbait... creating my own chunk worked! Thank you so much. Helps me out a ton. Thank you!

I’ve tried creating a chunk for my iframe, but it still will not display. my chunk called "iframe" has this:


and I am calling my chunk on my page like this:


When I go to the page, nothing appears in the content area. Any ideas?
