iframe using a shortcode?

That’s its only reason for existence. Its raison d’être, if you will. Did you read the tutorial provided?

OK OK I’m sorry I was just going to edit the post and try to delete it. lol I’m not sure what I was doing wrong but I think I was making more complicated than it is.
I got it working

Yippee!

Well maybe not.
What I want to do is I have a timely calendar event list I want to display on my html home page and I want to strip off the wp header and widgets. that’s what I’m using the fileaway iframe for.

So I made my fileaway iframe and inserted it into my html home page. I did this by making an html iframe linking to the fileaway iframe page. Now when you open the html home page the iframe page steals the show and auto opens to the fileaway iframe page. I have done wp iframes on my html page before w/o the fileaway iframe and not had this problem.

maybe I’m over thinking this? I’s there an easier way?

WOW I just reread this and it’s a lot of WOW.. sorry. hopeful you can understand what I’m trying to do.

You have to set the page template to be File Away iframe

yes I did that https://wp.aibdca.org/event-list/

And then I put that page into an iframe in my html page https://www.aibdca.org/

Click on this and it will take you to the html page and then auto take you to https://wp.aibdca.org/event-list/

Ok for some reason it works when you click on the link above but if you type in the url it auto opens the fileaway iframe page.

Also is there a way to have the iframe background white? I just started looking through the tutorials.

The background is whatever color your page is. I click on your home page link and it does not auto-take me to the event-list page. The event-list page is iframed inside the home page as expected. I’m not understanding what the problem is that you’re having.

Here’s what I see on your page: https://imgur.com/qudBuOA

I’m not sure why but the link above worked when clicked on it. but if you type in the url https://www.aibdca.org it will open for a second and then it auto goes to the events list https://wp.aibdca.org/event-list/
I’ve tried it on several computers and IE FF and chrome same thing happens.

Nope. Still not redirecting for me, if I type it in manually (with or without https://). It still works just fine for me, in any browser. At any rate, this would not be an issue with File Away or with fileaframe. All fileaframe does is generate an <iframe> tag.

still having this problem. I looked up on my html webpage forum a solution and they say to … To break out of an inline frame you can set the target of the link to ‘_parent’

is there a way to do this?

I think I found a work around.
