How to Embed an iFrame in Connect Post

Hello, Local Guides Team,

I used to be able to add 360-degree images and other websites to Connect posts using iFrame.
Currently, In HTML code is loading but after submitting it is no longer showing the following warning message.

My iframe code:

My previous iframe embed post link: Jahaj Gahat Naval Fort

What is the solution?

After clicking submit button then show this type of warning massage

Hallo @MahabubMunna

I’m sorry about your discover. I supposed you were aware of the change, that took place several years ago, with also a long debate on the SVTP board.

Well, in any case I will try to summarize here, as I can’t share the link to the post (that board was closed)

The ability to use I-frame in Connect was removed due to a potential security risk.

Actually only moderators are allowed to use it

@ErmesT thanks a lot for your response.

As I know it’s not possible street view or Google API called any Iframe.

After 3 year when I try to use my own web developed one Virtual tour use in their and I failed.

Till now I think just it’s happened for only street view or 360 photography but now I think other web also not use to embed in there using I frame that’s why I share this post.

I think developer team reconcider about that and give us opportunity to share our own develop something share using I frame.

Well, you said the right words, @MahabubMunna . With Iframe you can embed almost everything, it il like to open a hole inside a web page. And you don’t have any control of what happen in the content you embedded. That’s the reason of the potential security risk.
