 * Hi. I’m trying to insert a widget code into one of the column I created but I
   don’t see option to do that. I see a shortcode Plus sign but when I click it 
   I don’t see option to insert code for that widget.
    I want to insert this <iframe
   src=”[http://widgets.ikitesurf.com/widgets/web/currentConditions?spot_id=51197&units_wind=mph&units_temp=C&width=200&height=245&include_fx=false&color=1E1E1E&activity=Kite&app=ikitesurf&#8221](http://widgets.ikitesurf.com/widgets/web/currentConditions?spot_id=51197&units_wind=mph&units_temp=C&width=200&height=245&include_fx=false&color=1E1E1E&activity=Kite&app=ikitesurf&#8221);
   width=”200″ height=”245″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no” align=”top”></iframe>
 * I tried to go to a text portion of wordpress to insert it into the right space
   but then when updated the page does not display it.
    Thanks for help

 * Thanks for letting me know. Embedding an iframe isn’t yet supported. The work
   around for now is to paste it first in the backend then save it. It disappears
   once you hit edit since PBS doesn’t know of it yet. Another alternative is if
   it has an oEmbed URL, you can use that to embed for now.
 * I’ll have embedding via iframe in soon 🙂

 * Thank you for that explanation.
    I also noticed that inserting video from you
   tube also does not work. It used to on older version but it stopped now.

 * YouTube should work, just paste in the url of the video. I’ve got iframe embedding
   working, however there’re additional stuff that I want to put in for the next
   version.

 * Ok , maybe I’m doing something wrong.
    I go to edit with Page Sandwich,then click
   Media,insert from URL , insert url from youtube and video does not show up on
   the bottom. Before it did. Wham am I doing wrong?

 * You can do that, or you can also directly paste the url in a new line then press
   enter.
 * Here’s the doc on it: [http://docs.pagebuildersandwich.com/article/5-how-to-embed-content-from-other-sites](http://docs.pagebuildersandwich.com/article/5-how-to-embed-content-from-other-sites)

 * That is very helpful. I had not idea that it is so simple, and it works.
    Thank
   you very much for your help. 🙂

 * You’re right though, clicking the media button and doing insert from URL should
   work but it isn’t. This is a bug that needs to be fixed.
 * I would like to ask for a bit of feedback: What additional features would you
   like to see added to PB Sandwich? And after you’ve played around with it, I would
   like to ask if you could leave an honest rating of the plugin 🙂

 * I think your plugin is awesome and easy to use. I just started to play with wordpress
   few month ago. Yours is the easiest.
    I was trying to add extra empty line in
   a column but I coulnd not do that. Also formatting of letters does not work all
   the time. I was trying to make bold letter but it apply changes 50% of the time.
   Definitely adding image or video from url is important to me. Not all the formatting
   features were available. I had to go back to regular wordpress to apply different
   styles. Background color of cells option would be nice. If I think of something
   else I will send you another message. Thank you for your excellent plugin and
   support. MAciek

 * Thanks for the rating and the praises!
 * You could add an empty line by doing a ctrl+enter, although those would need 
   to be inbetween text or else pressing enter would trim the spaces at the end.
 * Yup I’ve also fixed the bold tool not applying for the next version (this will
   be out soon)
 * What formatting features were lacking? Ideally the lite version should contain
   the formatting stuff available in the backend.
 * As for the tables, those will be placed in the premium version. Although table
   styles are in the back burner for now 🙂

 * I was thinking about just adding empty space not between letters.
    Anyway, I 
   guess you can not have everything for free. Your plugin makes my work so much
   easier. Thank you again. Maciej

 * No problem! You can also use the vertical thickness or rows and columns to do
   the trick. 🙂

 * How can a widget be added to the page?
 * Really nice editor, well done!

 * Hey plexusdesign, please create another topic. But to answer your question, this
   cannot be done yet, but you can use a plugin that converts a widget into a shortcode
   then just type in the shortcode in the frontend 🙂

 * As soon as I’m done adding in a newsletter signup element, I’ll do some tests
   on how to bring widgets in straight from the inspector. 🙂
