This plugin will parse the web address on page load looking for parameters, and add those parameters to the source URL for any iframe with a specific ID.<\/p>\n\n

Example use case: pass discount and affiliate codes via page URL to embedded Eventbrite tickets widgets.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Install via WordPress.org plugin directory (coming soon!)...or...<\/li>\n
  2. Download zip file, unzip, and upload rwc-pass-parameters-to-iframe directory to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  4. Add id=\"rwcGetParams\" to any iframes you want to retrieve parameters from page URL<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    How do I make an iframe source URL get the parameters from the page URL?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    In order for this plugin to pass the parameters to an iframe's source URL, you have to add a specific id, rwcGetParams, to the iframe. For example<\/p>\n\n

    <iframe src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\"><\/iframe>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
    should become<\/p>\n\n
    <iframe id=\"rwcGetParams\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\"><\/iframe>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
    Once you have added that id to the iframe, the plugin will automatically find any parameters in the URL and pass them on.<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Will this work with multiple iframes on the same page?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    No. Currently, this plugin will NOT support multiple iframes on the same page, unless you want them all to load the same content.<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Will this work with many different iframes throughout the website?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    Yes, this plugin will function with different iframes loading unique content, so long as they are on different pages of your website.<\/p><\/dd>\n
    What if the iframe source URL already has parameters?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    If your iframe source URL already has parameters we take that into account and don't add another question mark. Everything will work as expected.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
