Embed in new Modern Pages

I'm trying to embed forms in the new page type using the Embed control. At first it did not work at all until I added the site to html field security list but now it does, sort of. Sometimes it works...

We're having the same issue with WordPress...did you find a solution?

 

Thanks!

We did two things since I posted that.  One is that we changed the form so that anyone could use it, i.e. we dropped the requirement that the person filling it out be in our O365 organization.  This allows the form to render for anyone and not require a login.  I think that is the change which made the form always show rather than the link.

 

Then we also fine tuned the height parameter of the iframe statement so that the full form had room to appear.

    Thanks for the tips. Our forms are already used for external input so its not that. I'll try the height settings but from reading different posts, it seems related to WordPress removing iframes for security reasons.

      We have the form on a page by itself, and we edit it in text mode, not visual mode, and the iframe works well.  I have seen WordPress remove the iframe tag, but only in particular sequence of events and I can't recall what that was.  Also we use a pagebuilder theme which becomes the page/post editor.

       

      If you are using a security plugin you might check to see if it is blocking iframes for you.
