• Hi there,
    We are trying to add a WordPress blog in an iframe in another website (a learning platform). The frontpage can be seen and we can go through the posts and pages inside the blog, but the problem appears when we try to click somewhere in the upper menu in black (e.g. Dashboard or create a new post or page). Then the iframe gets white and there is not possibility to see anything beyond.
    The IT developers of our learning platform meant that that has nothing to do with it, but with WordPress. I wonder if someone else has experienced this kind of issue and has solved it…Perhaps some incompatibility with a plugin is already known?
    By the way, we have the last version of WordPress.
    Thank you in advance!

    Do you see the same issue on the WP site if you’re accessing it directly (i.e., not through the iframe)?

    Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

    Thank you for your message.
    No, it only happens in the iframe. The WP site works well when accessing it directly.
    Since it is a private installation and the place where it shows in a iframe is also inside that installation, the link is not accessible as external user (it requires the user login of the platform, which anyone who accesses to that iframe has)…

    It sounds like relative links in the WordPress menu confusing things. Can you add a subdomain instead and run the blog on its own as a subdomain?

    Else go through the WordPress menu fixing the links to be absolute instead of relative. That will probably fix things.

    A link to the site would really help us see.

    You could also put a ‘break out of our iFrame’ button link on your site if you feel you need to keep the iFrame for now.
