How Do I Embed an Iframe in Squarespace?

Last updated on December 20, 2022 @ 6:05 pm

An iframe is an HTML element that allows you to embed another HTML document within the current one. Iframes are commonly used on web pages to embed videos, maps, and other content from external sources.

Squarespace allows you to easily add iframes to your site using the Code Block element. Simply add a Code Block to your page and paste the code for your iframe into the block. You can then style the iframe using the Code Block’s settings.

PRO TIP: Iframes can be used to embed content from another website into a Squarespace website. However, iframes can also pose a security risk if the website that is being embedded is not secure. It is important to only embed content from websites that you trust.

To ensure that your iframe is displaying correctly, we recommend adding a width and height attribute to the code. This will ensure that the iframe is the correct size on all devices. You can also add CSS styles to further customize the look of your iframe.

Here’s an example of how you would add an iframe to a Squarespace page:

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDMP3i36naA" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Adding an iframe to your Squarespace page is a great way to embed videos, maps, and other content from external sources. By adding a width and height attribute to the code, you can ensure that your iframe is the correct size on all devices.
