Iframe help please.

[Meanman]

Hi, I want to add an iframe to a post on the forum for a calorie calculator but can't seem to find how to do it, any help would be great thank you.

[Kindred]

no, because allowing that would be a security issue

[Sir Osis of Liver]

As admin you should be able to do it with html.

Thank you all so much, i wonder if there is a plugin for calorie counting, my site is going to be a healthy lifestyle site.

[Meanman]

Thank you so much,  how would I commission a calorie counter plugin? my site is about healthy living.

Put in a request at the request board.

Do you mean something like https://www.freedieting.com/calorie-calculator

We use TinyPortal blocks that run JavaScript for calculators on our site.

[Meanman]

Thank you both.
Hi SKB, that is exactly what I am looking for do you know how I could implement this on my forum that is in the process of being built, there is nothing much there yet [nofollow]

This should help you get started

Suggest you have a look at my site's calculators.

[Meanman]

Thanks for your help but that is way above my skill level.

[Doug Heffernan]

Thanks for your help but that is way above my skill level.

If you use that portal mod mentioned above, all you can do is copy/paste that code in a html block and you will be good to go.

[Meanman]

I looked at the link given but it seems the code has problems and someone has cleaned it up but in two or three parts.

Thanks for your help but that is way above my skill level.

It was for me too. But don't give up. Keep tinkering and you'll be able to get through. There are a lot of helpful sites on the internet.

The HTML code no longer works in PHP7.

The following error or errors occurred while posting this message:
The message body was left empty.

Maybe so, but it works for me, and I am on PHP7.1...

so there may be another problem causing you that error...

I doubt the PHP version is at fault, probably something else happened.

[Arantor]

I mean, there are changes in PHP internals that did affect that... but in 5.5, not 7. In the other thread I asked for a list of mods because I'm willing to bet it's a mod that changed something and the mod isn't 7 compatible.
