Hi Robin,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply.

Currently if you want to use HTML block inside your blog post, you need to change your easyblog environment mode to development mode as HTML block is not functioning correctly in static or production environment. You can change the environment mode by going to your backend > easyblog > settings > system > system environment. We are still investigating on the issue and will keep everyone updated once the issue has been resolved.

Oh by the way, there are some extra slashes on your iframe url there and it will return you with the error 404 page. Try to use the following iframe code while enabling development mode for your easyblog site.

<iframe src="http://videoplayback.parliamentlive.tv/Player/Index/af7fada8-4273-4c60-b86c-80810c8e9989?in=2016-03-02T09%3A35%3A27%2B00%3A00&audioOnly=False&autoStart=False&statsEnabled=False"; id="UKPPlayer" name="UKPPlayer" title="UK Parliament Player" seamless="seamless" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe>

Hope these help.

Thanks, I will try.
Life is a constant journey of enquiry and new situations!
First I have to try and remember the complicated process of renewing the Facebook autopost function, as I noticed that it just expired. !#*!
Cheers, Robin

Can you send me the step-by-step instructions for renewing the token, including how to find the codes on our Facebook site please?
I'm hunting round your forum for the instructions....

I found the instructions;
1) Ignore the 'renew token button
2) Press 'revoke token' then sign in again with the resulting facebook button

I did that and eventually navigated past an Easyblog error message and some confusing Facebook messages and instructions and to me meaningless buttons, but anyway its worked!

I'm now progressing with writing and editing the Diary item. Success with getting the html block to work. The original code provided was fine, however, your suggested revision wasn't.

But I am proceeding ok now I think. Thanks a lot, Robin

Preview Post: I remembered your previous advice that this button is effective only by logging in via front end. However I could not get it to work then either.

I think I should now turn developer mode off, is that best?

Hm, not sure why but the original code that you provided is not accessible from my end. Nevertheless glad to hear that your issue has been resolved now.

Can you start a new thread for this issue so that our support team will be able to see the issue clearly?

Yes you can turn off development mode now but remember to turn it on back again if you want to create a blog post that involving block html in the future.
