How Do I Embed an Iframe in Webflow?
Webflow is a powerful web design tool that allows you to create stunning websites without any coding knowledge. Sometimes, you may need to embed an iframe into your Webflow project to display external content such as videos, maps, or social media feeds. In this tutorial, we will explore how to easily embed an iframe in Webflow.
Step 1: Find the Embed Code
Before you can embed an iframe in Webflow, you need to obtain the embed code for the content you want to display. This code is typically provided by the third-party service hosting the content, such as YouTube or Google Maps.
Step 2: Add an Embed Element
In your Webflow project, navigate to the page where you want to embed the iframe and add an Embed element. To do this:
- Click on the plus icon (+) on the left-hand side of the Webflow Designer.
- Select “Embed” from the list of elements.
- A new Embed element will appear on your canvas.
Step 3: Paste the Embed Code
Now that you have added the Embed element, it’s time to paste in the embed code for your iframe. To do this:
- Double-click on the Embed element to open its settings.
- Paste your embed code into the code field provided.
- Click outside of the settings panel to close it.
Note:
Make sure that your embed code includes both opening and closing tags for proper formatting.
Step 4: Adjust Size and Position (Optional)
By default, when you add an Embed element in Webflow, it will be displayed at its original size. However, you can customize the size and position of the embedded iframe to fit your design.
- Select the Embed element on your canvas.
- Use the handles on the edges of the element to resize it as desired.
- Drag and drop the element to reposition it on your page.
Be mindful of maintaining a responsive design when adjusting the size and position of your embedded iframe. Test how it looks on different devices to ensure it displays correctly.
