The page will display as it appears in a regular web browser, provided the requirments below are met.
Requirements for the website
Not every website can be mirrored in an iFrame. Check that the page you want to use meets these requirements:
Troubleshooting
The webiste is most likely blocking iFrame display via X-Frame-Options or Content-Security-Policy. Contact the developer and ask them to whitelist our domains.
Ask the developer to provide a version of the page without a conset dialog, or a dedicated URL intended for screen display.
Check that the page has responsive design. If not, ask the developer to adapt the layout for screen display.
The website must ensure that content is up to date on load. If the source caches data, contact the developer to adjust this.
Frequently Asked Questions about iFrame
Can I display a page I am logged in to?
No. The iFrame slide is not authenticated and cannot access accounts that require login. For services behind authentication, you need a solution that generates public URL or an embed link that does not require sign-in.
Fyesign has dedicated slide types for YouTube and Vimeo. Use those instead for better playback control and performance.
