I embedded a map in a post by writing the link on a single line. It was working perfectly for days until it wasn’t… And I don’t know why.
The link is working, and the embedding of the same map works in my other Discourse.
It creates an empty iframe:
The iframe link is [https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1MisLV7Ag0x8vMU5dSww1uWnQQxVgzO8e](https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1MisLV7Ag0x8vMU5dSww1uWnQQxVgzO8e).
I didn’t change any related setting and I still have `https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?` in my allowed iframes.
No error in the js console, and nothing in logs. Safe-mode doesn’t fix the issue.
Any idea why the map doesn’t load anymore?
edit:
However, the iframe content is displayed if I directly paste this the iframe HTML code in my post. 🤔

I pasted this link: [https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=za0Bx0koO4sk.kHCbG4TApEP4](https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=za0Bx0koO4sk.kHCbG4TApEP4)
On a single line on my two Discourse forums.
It works on one of my forum, and here’s the cooked code:
```html
```
On the forum on which it doesn’t work, here’s the cooked:
```html
```
Note that there is a `data-unsanitized-src` attribute in the iframe on the forum where it doesn’t work.
Both forum are using 2.6.0.beta3 ( [b8015ab654](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commits/b8015ab654a5d9987ec7c50808d05c4769daad13))
And I can repro on [try.discourse.org](http://try.discourse.org):
> **[Hello world for test](https://try.discourse.org/t/hello-world-for-test/1499)**
>
> actionbook composer test via ProseMirror - please ignore. marker:abk-pm-4408 (auto-delete)hello world
Note that the generated iframe also has a `data-unsanitized-src` attribute.

Have they changed their embed path? I note on try that the default `allowed iframes` has `https://www.google.com/maps/embed?` but not `https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?`
I just added `https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?` to the allowlist, rebaked the posts and they are now working on try.

I already had `https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?` in my allowed iframes and it was working until today on my forum. 🤔
edit: iframes now work on try.discourse. I supposed you added /d/embed on it @supermathie?
Anyway it’s still not working on my forum despite having this url allowed… 😕

I rebaked my posts and it started work again. 👍
And happy birthday.

Yep, see post above.

Follow-up for us: Should we add this path to the default?

Not sure. Just tried to embed a Google Map and I got the URL **without** the `/d/` 🤷♂️
@Canapin how did you get that embed URL?

I got this map URL: [https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1MisLV7Ag0x8vMU5dSww1uWnQQxVgzO8e&ll=30.174583250700085%2C-30.06865476191399&z=3](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1MisLV7Ag0x8vMU5dSww1uWnQQxVgzO8e&ll=30.174583250700085%2C-30.06865476191399&z=3) from [https://sites.google.com/view/openunicyclecalendar/open-unicycle-map](https://sites.google.com/view/openunicyclecalendar/open-unicycle-map)
It doesn’t work without the /d/, and clicking the hamburger → **embed** shares a link with the /d/ as well.

Thanks, looks like those are user-generated maps? Don’t know if those are popular enough to warrant it be a default 🤔
Since we have a simple workaround, I’m going to give it the wait-till-we-have-3-reports to add that URL as a default.

Have the same problem, old maps are shown, new ones are not.
Don´t have access to our core so can´t rebake posts.
After adding /D/ to the list above I can now get link as iframe to work.. but not only as a “one row link”.

This is the issue I was facing and I already had /d/ in my iframe authorized URL, so I still don’t understand why it stopped working, and worked again later.
The only thing I did was to remove /d/ from the authorized URLs, and add it again… 🤷♂️
(and I needed to rebake after anyway)
