How Do I Add an iFrame to Wix?

Last updated on January 2, 2023 @ 12:03 pm

If you’re looking to add an iFrame to your Wix website, there are a few things you need to know. iFrames are HTML tags that allow you to embed one HTML document into another, and they’re commonly used to embed videos or other media onto webpages.

Wix allows you to add iFrames to your site, but there are a few limitations to keep in mind.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

First, you can only add iFrames to websites that are hosted on Wix. If you’re using a third-party hosting service, you won’t be able to use iFrames. Second, Wix doesn’t allow you to add iFrames from external sources.

So if you want to embed a video from YouTube, for example, you won’t be able to do it with an iFrame. You’ll need to use an embed code instead.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add an iFrame to your Wix website, be aware that there are some potential security risks associated with this. iFrames can be used by malicious third-parties to inject unwanted content or code onto your website, which could jeopardize the security of your site and its visitors. If you do decide to add an iFrame to your Wix site, be sure to only embed content from trusted sources.

That said, there are still plenty of ways you can use iFrames on your Wix site. Here are a few ideas:

  • Embed a video from your own website
  • Display a Google Map on your Contact page
  • Add a social media feed from Twitter or Facebook

If you’re not sure how to add an iFrame to your Wix site, don’t worry – it’s easy! Just follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your Wix account and open the site editor.
  2. Click on the page where you want to add the iFrame.
  3. Click the “Add” button and select “HTML Code” from the list of options.
  4. Paste your iFrame code into the box that appears and click “Update. “

That’s it! Your iFrame will now be embedded on your website.

Now that you know how easy it is to add an iFrame to Wix, why not give it a try? There are plenty of great uses for iFrames, so get creative and see what you can come up with!
