iFrame and Tables

Jamroom (using Ningja skin) does not support iFrame or tables, in blogs, pages, etc. Will it at some time?

Jamroom supports iFrames - you need to make sure you've installed the iFrame Control module:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/116/iframe-control

since iFrames are very insecure by default they do not work in Jamroom. The iFrame control module allows you to add "trusted" domains that will be allowed to have an iFrame on your site.

After install you also want to make sure you allow "iframe" in your Allowed HTML tags in your Core -> Quota Settings.

Then you can manually add an iframe where needed. Note that there is no "iframe" button in the WYSIWYG editor, so for now it would need to manually be added in. We recently modularized how custom plugins for the WYSIWYG editor works, so I will see if TinyMCE has an iframe control for their editor and see if it could be added in as part of the iFrame control module.

Hope this helps!

I have iframe-control and have http://youtube.com as a valid domain, and quota set up for all users, but when I paste an iFrame code into a blog or page it does not save it.

You need to add iframe to the list of allowed HTML and you can do it just for your member Quota to restrict it to you. If the embed string also contains "src" add that to your list of allowed HTML.

I had this same issue with javascript code inside one of my templates that I did not want to be parsed by Smarty.

If you have some javascript inside your iFrame, try surrounding it with {literal} {/literal}. But the first step is to make sure iframe is allowable HTML.

Thanks - Yes I have done all of that, but it still does save the code. Not sure what else I need to do?

I did not see it in the screen shot you provided ... if none of this helps it's beyond my understanding to troubleshoot.

No, but I have now. Not sure if it has something to do with the Validation?

I don't know. Could be. It will only take a few seconds to try it out and see.

With validation on - I get the massage "This iFrame is not allowed". Even though I have YouTube (iFrame source) as a permitted domain.
With it off - the code is not saved.
So not sure exactly where to go with this.

Sorted it.. I had to use "www.youtube.com" not "http://youtube.com"

http is not in your list of allowed HTML tags ... might want to see if that's the issue.

Going back to isleander's original question: Will tables be supported down the line? I would like to have the ability to use them for a political website.

In your allowed list, make sure your just using youtube.com, you don't want the http:// part in it.
