IFRAMEr (Free) by BOP5 - Easily create IFRAMEs in your forums to external pages
![]() Developer Last Online: Apr 2021 ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() Brought to you by BirdOPrey5
www.Qapla.com Version 1.3.1 Fully compatible with VB 3.8 & 4.x versions. This is a free version of this mod. The Gold Version is available at: IFRAMEr Gold by BOP5 at Qapla.com The FREE version is just like the GOLD version except limited to 3 Admin Created IFRAMEs. The GOLD version allows for unlimited IFRAME pages. Also The GOLD version also allows for the admin to set a custom filename and URL attributes. Live Demos: VB4 Demos- Photo Editor - Qapla.com Forum by BOP5 - Photo Editor Radar Map - Qapla.com Forum by BOP5 - Radar Map VB3 Demos- 321 Cheese - JUOT - Joe's Ultimate Off Topic - 321Cheese.com (Take your own photo) Photo Editor - JUOT - Joe's Ultimate Off Topic - Photo Editor About: The IFRAME tag is a powerful tag that lets you embed any webpage in any other webpage. It is used all over in places you'd never expect like "Like Buttons" and even in vBulletin's Human Verify templates. This mod is designed to provide the admin with one large IFRAME on a vBulletin powered page that the admin can easily assign and setup via the Admin CP. This will allow admins to provide a familiar and local interface for external content. PLEASE BE AWARE NOT ALL WEBSITES "ALLOW" YOU TO FRAME THEM. Please read the site's "Terms of Service" before you place their content into an IFRAME on your page. Some sites specifically forbid this, though it is mostly through the "honor system." Very few use JavaScript code that can detect them being framed and "break out" of them automatically. Still, please do your due diligence before framing anyone else's content. There a number of sites you are allowed to frame such as the photo editor in the demo links (a popular choice), usually any scientific/government sites like weather maps, forecasts, or NASA sites. Wikimedia/Wikipedia allow for framing as well. This mod also allows you to choose if you want to link to each or any of the IFRAME pages via the "Quick Links" drop-down forum menu. However, this mod is intended to create the FRAME pages- linking to them in a better way is up to you. May I suggest a (Free) Qapla.com ExQlusive mod : Navbar Buttons Builder by BOP5 - For easy inclusion of IFRAME links in the navbar or drop-down lists. You must give each IFRAMEr page a title, a navbits title, and an optional extended description. Each of these options may be entered directly into the IFRAMEr manager OR can instead be created as phrases to allow translation to multiple languages for multi-language sites. In the latter case you specify the "use phrases" and enter the phrase name in the settings box instead. A convenient link is included to the Phrase Manager pre-loaded to show your custom IFRAMEr phrases (if any.) Finally the mod also allows you to choose which usergroups can see each IFRAME link and page. By default all usergroups can see each IFRAME page, but you can restrict it to specific groups or member's only (preventing guest access.) ------------------------------------------------------ Please "Mark as Installed" if you use this. ![]() Donations always appreciated. ![]() Nominate MOTM if you LOVE it! ![]() Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information.

Installed with thanks ...
![]() How do you handle web sites that use a separate panel on the left side to navigate? Clicking on a link in those nav panels seems to take the site out of the iFrame mod and into a very direct mode. Thanks .. ![]() Regards, Doug The following members like this post: BirdOPrey5, mohammadxxx

BadgerDog,
I'm afraid there is nothing to do for those sites- they were never designed to be in FRAMEs and you can't do anything to force it.

Would it be possible to have the iframe/links appear in only select forums? This way a forum about product X could show links for only that item, while the forum for product Y would only see their links?

How safe is this mod? Typically iFrames are very dangerous to use correct?

The mod does have an option to view the IFRAMEs in security mode but that is something only Internet Explorer supports so it is of little practical value.

Updated to Version 1.1
Added option to use "Absolute" URLs for Links in Quick Links. These are only necessary if your blogs or CMS (or 3rd party CMS) is in a different directory than your main forums. Using Absolute URLs will prevent file-not-found errors when clicking on the links from outside the forum directory.

Would you be willing to add the ability to add a new drop down menu next to "Quick Links" say "External Links" where these would appear?
