Simply Brilliant...
First: I created my account at this site just for posting this review.
Scenario: new to Joomla, and I was struggling to get a wrapper into a content page for my site. Could not for the life of me get the wrapper how I wanted. being of the male stereotypical persuasion, I do not care to read an hours worth of joomla documentation, I just kept trying and trying. Finally broke down and gave in and decided ok, gonna have to read, I am doing something wrong... Came across this and finally after days on dinking with my site, this game me a wrapper, inside an article with ease.
Now the only thing lacking for those like me new to joomla... How to use this plugin...
1. Download the zip file provided for the plugin.
2. In your Joomla admin panel, go to "Extensions, install/Uninstall". Upload the plugin. MIND YOU, this is a Plugin, not a Module.
3. Go to "Extensions, Plugin Manager" and find the plugin called "Content - Iframe Plugin" and activate it.
4. Next, either create your article, or choose an existing article and simply paste in the line where you would would normally put your content a line similiar to this:
{iframe width="520" height="240" align="top"}http://www.google.com{/iframe}.
That is it!
Wonderful wonderful plugin! On the authors web site, for noobs like myself new to Joomla, a simple usage instruction would have saved me 2 minutes of my life from having to figure this out... But Hey! 2 minutes to solve an issue that prior to this plugin, NO BIGGY!
GET IT!
