Please help!! Urgent!!! HTML Content Visual stops to work suddenly for all my pages.

Hi All,

 

I use HTML content visuals to show some websites on my dashboard. There used very simple HTML code as shown below:

Website = "<iframe src='https://www.nhc.noaa.gov' style=position: 'fixed; width=100%; height=650px;'> </iframe>"
Here dashboard: Links WebSites.pbix
 
Suddenly this website stops to show, I do not know what could happen.
I had used HTML Content and HTML Content (Lite) visuals
 
I have tested and the websites don't have something new. I assume it can be something on my power bi desktop. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome!

    Have not dug into why the visuals you use are not displaying, however, they do not.   Switch to 

    HTML VizCreator Flex by BI Samurai custom visual, which does display iframes.  Here is an example of adding your NOAA URL to the iframe in their Sample file:

    It does not work on my computer. I do not know what could be.

      A working sample file is the one by HTML VizCreator Flex by BI Samurai .   I tested their file, using 

      the NOAA URL, and it loaded without issue.   Download their sample, see if it loads out of the box, and

      then test using the URLs you are interested in using.

        Hi axs3396 ,

         

        Would be nice if this didin't require a license. It's fine in edit mode.

         

        As to why the website is not being shown/blocked, the answer could be in this link. https://www.html-content.com/reference/limitations 

        The OP's case is probably similar with mine. I had no problem embedding a trailer from IMDb but all of a sudden the iframe content's being blocked. Something must have changed from IMDb's, the service's or both's side.

    I think it is something about this computer. This is the original sample and even that does not work.
