Super Userpublish to web in combination with wordpress
Hey,
I have to admit, that I'm not that familiar with wordpress, just started blogging some time ago mainly about data visualization using R, but now I would also share my Power BI stuff, but it seems that the generated HTML-code will not work from within my blog, just the link is shown (that works), but not the report.
Any hints how to spread the Power BI word by using wordpress?
Many thanks in advance!

Are you talking about Public Story Telling as announced yesterday? Here is the embed code working on my blog from my post yesterday http://exceleratorbi.com.au/power-bi-public-story-telling-is-pure-genius/
If you have problems, try switching from the Visual editor to the Text editor before pasting the iFrame. This view will show you the HTML code (which is what the iframe is). You will see your text wrapped in HTML, but you will work out what is going on.

Hey Matt, thanks for your remark. Yes - I'm referring to the "Story Telling" feature.
I'm using the text mode from within Wordpress pasting the generated HTML-Code, this look like this (sorry for providing just links, but it seems I'm also not able to provide some proper screenshots within this frame :-( (guess, today is one of these days)

in preview mode it looks like this

The fun thing, the link would work as expected, opening my Power BI Report.
Maybe this has something to do with the support of the iframe tags in wordpress as described here
or maybe it's just my theme.

I see. Very strange. Yes this has to be a wordpress setting I think. I would ask on a wordpress forum and discuss that an iframe is not rendering (as opposed to discussing that Power BI is not working). I think that will give you the fastest result.
