- Hi,
No sure if a screenshot will help.
1/ Add the iFrame code to your embed web part like you normally would and publish your page. You will see the issue with the mouse over we are experiencing
2/ Place the page into edit mode, in the embed web part text box delete the iFrame code and replace with something like "facebook.com" and then click the Republish button
For some reason it ignores the facebook.com code you enters and displays the web part correctly using the previous iFrame code
Hi
Did you find a solution to this ? This is recently happening in multiple tenants.

ClayJames : No I have not and thanks for commenting at least now I know it is not only my tenant which is affcted.
- Hey mate - it is actually quite widespread.
i have been in touch with MSFT and have a weird workaround but it works 🙂
Stay with me as it is strange.
1/ Put your page in edit mode
2/ Remove the iFrame code from the web part - and replace with something like facebook.com (I don't think this matters)
3/ Click somewhere outside the textbox - and then click Save as Draft or Republish button
And for some strange reason the embed web part will work correctly.- Hey James, It is nice that you have received a solution and thanks for sharing.
But unfortunately I could not follow you. Can you share a screenshot or the code you have placed inside the Embed box?
Many Thanks,
