 * Have you read the documentation and are you able to provide more details?
 * Do you maybe have any Javascript errors on your page. Because then this cannot
   work anymore.

 * Yes I’ve read the docs over and over. As I understand it it’s supposed to hide#
   id and .class elements from the iframed page. I have tried to hide headers and
   nav elements and only display the main content sections of pages but to no avail.
   No java errors that I can see. I want to just iframe the maps in this page and
   hide the header.

 * You can only hide elements from the page you include the iframe in!
    Not from
   the page in the iframe!
 * I wrote this because wordpress often e.g. displays a e.g. header, right navigation
   you can now turn off to give the iframe more space.

 * Thanks for the clarification. My theme allows me to use full width pages etc.

 * Then you only need this plugin if you like to forward parameters to your iframe.

 * So there’s no way to display just part of a page within the iframe? I would really
   like to hide the header or footer of the page within the iframe!

 * no. You would have e.g. to pass a parameter which is read by the page in the 
   iframe and hides the header/footer

 * I’m not sure how to hide elements in my iframe… i’ve read all the documentation.
 * this is my shortcode
    `[advanced_iframe securitykey="22222222222222222222" src
   ="http://www.abc.net.au/perth/news/" width="555" height="555" scrolling="no" 
   marginwidth="" marginheight="" id="" name="" frameborder="" content_id="" content_styles
   ="" hide_elements="#header" class="" url_forward_parameter=""]`
 * but it doesn’t hide the header?
 * thanks

 * does the header has the id “header”?
    A link to your page would help here ;).
