I need to edit the HTML of posts at times, regularly.

I cannot find where to turn this on in the ACP.

Under Customization --> Editor, there is no longer the option to add / remove buttons. At least I don't see it.

Thanks

All of that is gone. You can't edit anymore the HTML source directly nor you can set group/area permissions for each single editor button in v5.

As for editing the HTML, you can use this modification as a workaround: https://invisiondevs.com/files/file/76-edit-html-of-posts/

Link no work here !

 

Thanks, this is very disappointing. I'll need to access the database a lot more now. Some of the posts will be a huge pain to edit.

One thing I liked it for, every now and then I post an iframe embed, now I can't. I'll have to create the post, edit the database, and then it will show.

IPS, please add this back.

I would absolutely not recommend ever editing the database to make these changes. Not only can you break your site, but you will also likely lose them every time you edit the post.

The first question you should always ask yourself with these kinds of things is "What is the correct way to do this?" rather than immediately jumping to edit the database, assuming that is the only method.

If you take a look at 'System->Settings->Posting & Editor->embeds', you will see 'Allow links to be converted to iframes?'. See, if you can achieve what you need to achieve there.

 

Here are my editor permissions

Here is what Embeds looks like

Here are the permissions

I'm sure it's user error, please offer more pointers. :)

That looks correct except you don't need the https:// as that's the protocol and only secure URLs for custom iframes are supported. www.w3schools.com should work fine

Ah, sorry, you need https:// in the link panel, I meant you don't need it in the AdminCP Domain Whitelist

 

Getting closer, I can get the globe now, but it doesn't embed.

Hmm, ok. I can reproduce the issue in your recording there, but it works if there's an actual link... e.g. if you add text to the text field

Well, in the case of W3 Schools, it looks like it cannot be embedded due to the frame ancestors policy they set.

Have you tried using a domain and URL that you have embedded as an iframe elsewhere?

 

If I edit the actual HTML, it posts. If I type in the whole link above, I do not get the globe.

That would be because facebook.com is not whitelisted in the AdminCP "Allowed Domain Patterns" setting. While you're testing and getting used to it, you can just add a domain pattern that is just * to allow any secure URL to become an iframe, however we'd generally recommend people don't for security

Can someone explains with an example how Embed works ? Even with all settings on , I cannot get it to work

Could you show me what you have added? I can then use that example for you
