How can I iframe a local page rather than a remote page?

    My Plugin Structure:

    test-plugin (main plugin folder)

    • assets (folder)
    • includes (folder)
    • languages (folder)
    • test.php (the file I want my iframe to load)
    function test_plugin_admin_sub_page(){
	?>
<style>
 iframe {
 width: 1px;
 min-width: 100%;
 }
 </style>

<div class="wrap">
<iframe id="testIframe" src="test.php"></iframe>
</div>	
<?php

}

    Using the code above WordPress cannot find the “test.php” page, and since the iframe is in HTML code I can’t use the typical ‘plugin_dir_path( FILE )’ function. How can I create an iframe to display a local page located in the same plugin folder rather than a remote page?

    Thank you in advance for any help that can be provided!

  • What is used to call the function test_plugin_admin_sub_page()?

    Hi Threadi,

    Thank you very much for your reply! Here is the code I am using:

    add_action( 'admin_menu', 'test_plugin_admin_menu' );

function test_plugin_admin_menu() {
	add_menu_page( 'Test Plugin Menu', 'Test Plugin', 'manage_options', 'test-plugin/test-plugin-admin-page.php', 'test_plugin_admin_page', 'dashicons-art', 6  );
	add_submenu_page( 'test-plugin/test-plugin-admin-page.php', 'Test Page Menu', 'Test Page', 'manage_options', 'test-plugin/test-plugin-admin-sub-page.php', 'test_plugin_admin_sub_page' );
}

function run_test_plugin() {

	$plugin = new Test Plugin();
	$plugin->run();

}

function test_plugin_admin_page(){
	?>

<div class="wrap">

<iframe id="TestPluginFrame" style="width:100%;height:1000px;border:0;" src="https://mysite.com/test.php"></iframe>
</div>
	<?php

}

function test_plugin_admin_sub_page(){
	?>
<style>
  iframe {
    width: 1px;
    min-width: 100%;
  }
</style>

<div class="wrap">
<iframe id="testpageIframe" src="https://mysite.com/test.php"></iframe>
</div>	
<?php

}

run_test_plugin();

    Ah, ok, very simple actually: 

    <iframe id="TestPluginFrame" style="width:100%;height:1000px;border:0;" src="<?php echo trailingslashit(plugin_dir_url(__FILE__)); ?>test.php"></iframe>
