  tags in posts to actual iframes for allowed domains.

• Customization: Various settings to control iframe attributes and behavior.
  

Installation:

1. Upload Plugin:
   
   • Upload the plugin files to your MyBB installation under
     
     

     inc/plugins/

     
     None
     Select All
     .
     
2. Install Plugin:

3. Configure Settings:

   • Configure settings such as allowed domains, default iframe dimensions, and other options as per your requirements.
     
   • Save the settings.
     

Usage:

To embed an iframe in a post, use the following BBCode-like format:
bash
Copy code

[iframe]https://example.com/embed/video[/iframe]

None
Select All

Replace

https://example.com/embed/video

None
Select All

with the actual iframe URL from an allowed domain.
Settings:

• Allowed Domains: Comma-separated list of domains from which iframes can be embedded.
  
• Default Width & Height: Dimensions applied to iframes if not specified in the BBCode.
  
• Custom Parameters: Additional attributes to add to all iframes (e.g.,
  
  

  frameborder=0

  
  None
  Select All
  ).
  
• Responsive Iframes: Enable responsive behavior for iframes to adapt to different screen sizes.
  
• Error Handling: Customize error messages for non-allowed domains or other issues.
  

Troubleshooting:

• Iframes not appearing: Ensure the domain is listed in the allowed domains setting.
  
• White screen or errors: Check for syntax errors in plugin files or server compatibility issues.
  

Notes:

• Always test new configurations in a development environment before applying changes to a live forum.
  
• Regularly update the plugin for compatibility with newer MyBB versions and security patches.
