WordPress text editor – cannot embed iframes, cannot add code to text editor

[Chris Casalena]

I cannot embed iframes with google maps in the text editor anymore – has this something to do with BPS?

Is this a plugin or are you doing this manually or using a widget, etc?  If this is a plugin then what is that plugin’s name? Is the text editor the standard WordPress text editor for Posts and Pages?  Check your BPS Pro Security Log for any log entries related to the google map and post one of those log entries here.

not a plugin – I’m simply pasting the iframe code in my text editor – when I hit ‘update’ it strips it altogether.

Are you using the “text” editor tab when posting your iframe code or are you trying to post the code in the “visual” tab?

Doing a google search using search string:  “wordpress 4.0 text editor strips out code” I came across this topic:  https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/147303/wordpress-visual-editor-stripping-html-changes

I just tested some basic iframe code and it worked fine and was not stripped out of the text editor

<iframe src="https://example.com/" width="200" height="200"></iframe>

Hi – Sorry for not responding immediately – different timezones – just tried again, will not do it the main body, but I was able to add an iframe in a text widget no problem. (it may be theme related – I’ll check with the developers) Thanks for your speedy feedback – much appreciated.
