Embedding iFrames in Squarespace or WordPress

How to add external content to your website using iFrames on two popular platforms: Squarespace and WordPress.

Most website builders provide ways to embed external content through blocks or widgets. In this guide, we’ll walk you through embedding iFrames in two widely used platforms, Squarespace and WordPress.

Squarespace

Squarespace is known for its simplicity and elegant design capabilities. Here’s how you can embed iFrames into your Squarespace site:

📝 Embedding iFrames in Squarespace requires a Premium feature available in the Website Business plan or higher.

  1. In the section where you want to embed the iFrame, click the "+" button to create a new block.

  2. From the available options, select the Code block.

  3. In the Code block, paste the iFrame code from your form or external source. Once entered, the content will appear in the designated area of your page.

WordPress

Embedding iFrames in WordPress is also simple, but it requires a Business Plan and the installation of a custom plugin or theme for full HTML support. Here's how to do it:

📝 On Premium, Personal, or free WordPress plans, iFrames and other HTML tags like script, form, and input aren’t available. You will need the Business Plan to access these features.

  1. To embed an iFrame, click the "+" button to create a new block.

  2. In the search field, type "Code" and select the Custom HTML block.
    iframe SS5

  3. Paste the iFrame code from your form into the Custom HTML block. Your iFrame will now display the content from the external source on your WordPress page.

Embedding iFrames in both Squarespace and WordPress is a powerful way to integrate external content, such as forms, videos, or maps, directly onto your site. Make sure to check your subscription plan’s limitations and adjust accordingly to unlock this feature.
