I need to add an iframe to website that only logged in users can see, I know its unsafe and such but how would I go on and do this?

Like adding a small iframe on a category page or post/wiki.

I don’t need everyone to do this or wouldn’t care, this is a very very private discourse install so security is something that Is out of the question for this site.

Any ideas on how?

Just wana add an iframe from dropbox

Not possible in topics / posts; you can add it via the footer or header in Admin, Customize though.

That makes perfect sense Jeff, but what if I want this to be only viewed by signed in users?

I believe you can’t, mostly for security reasons.

You can now allow iframes from specific domains to be used in posts by adding the iframe’s `src` domain to the `allowed iframes` Site Setting.
