How to embed a Google doc
- From your dashboard, go to a post or page. Above the editing window, click the Add Advanced iFrame button,
- It will insert this sample shortcode:
[advanced_iframe src="//www.tinywebgallery.com/blog/advanced-iframe" width="100%" height="600"] - Go to your Google doc, copy the share link, no https:// in front is needed.
For example, your share link would look something like this:
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ecToP84j-VXXZUhOYeK2EjOxPHrauKAzW5F6GinE-lE/edit#gid=0 - Go back to your shortcode:
- in the quotation marks, replace "www.tinywebgallery.com/blog/advanced-iframe" with your link,
- leave the two forward slashes //
- It should look like this now: [advanced_iframe src="//docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ecToP84j-VXXZUhOYeK2EjOxPHrauKAzW5F6GinE-lE/edit#gid=0" width="100%" height="600"]
- Publish or update to save the changes.
