PageView Plugin

Apr 14, 2005 | Tags: , , | Written by John

PageView is a plugin that will display another web page inside the current post. This is achieved with the use of an iframe - an HTML tag that allows a webpage to be displayed inline with the current page. Although an iframe can lead to a complicated website, it can be very effective when used appropriately.

Installation

  1. Download pageview.zip
  2. Unzip
  3. Copy to your /wp-content/plugins directory
  4. Activate plugin

You can find full details of installing a plugin on the plugin installation page.

    Graeme, are you using the WordPress visual editor? If you are, it's likely that it may be mangling the code. I've updated the plugin to use a different tag which won't be affected by visual editors.

    Sorry for not answering sooner. Still having problems with this. ANY url I use comes back to [[[1]]] and with the 1.4 version of your plugin, the tag doesn't even get converted to an iframe, it just stays as a comment tag.

    [code][/code]

    becomes

    [code][/code]

    Any ideas? (I put the extra spaces next to the to stop them being converted here)

    tjestr, you should defined the height and width in the pageview.css file that is included with the plugin in version 1.4

    Can you post the exact tag you are inserting into a post, Graeme, and I'll see what happens for me.

    Any ideas as to why my iframe URLs always get broken and become [[[1]]] instead of the proper URL?

    Yes, the HTML code is stored in wp-content/plugins/pageview/view/default/pageview.php. You can either edit it there, or create a directory 'view/pageview' in your theme, copy the above file there, and modify it on a theme-by-theme basis (you'll need version 1.3 for that)

    Is it possible to remove the header with the icon (and the frame around)?
