Embedding Shiny into a Wordpress blog post using iframe

[Thiago Milagres]

So, I'd like to learn how to embed a Shiny app into a blog post. Since I know nothing about HTML and iframe, I'm following this good post:

http://stla.github.io/stlapblog/posts/rsm3Dshiny.html

However, I'm having the following problem. When I paste the following into the "HTML" tab of the Wordpress:

<iframe style="border: none; width: 900px; height: 500px;" src="https://stla.shinyapps.io/3Dsliced/" width="900" height="500"></iframe>

It does seem to work when I switch to the Visual tab:

However, when I do post, only the link for the app appears:

This is probably a very basic question, but what could I be doing wrong?

Thank you

Wordpress is probably stripped the iframe tag when sanitizing your post.

Can you right click the vinal page, hit view source, and paste results?  Do a find for iframe and see if it even shows up.

Iframes with shiny and WP are not impossible but can sometimes require things like CSRF tinkering, etc.

Thanks for the reply. You do seem to be correct, because when I see the page source, under content, it shows:

content="https://stla.shinyapps.io/3Dsliced/" />

So indeed no iframe. Do you know of any link explaining what I could do to solve this problem?
