You can embed a variety of content types using the What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) Editor in BluePrint. You can insert images, videos, PDFs, a horizontal line, or a special character using the below set of buttons:

Each of these functions walks you through adding your content on our platform.

To embed a different type of format, you can use embed codes that are generated by the platform. Microsoft Office, for instance, allows you to generate embed codes when accessing files from Microsoft Office Online. Similarly, H5P (a site that allows you to build and share interactive HTML content) allows you to copy+paste an embed code. Here is their walkthrough on embedding content.

These HTML codes usually start with <iframe, and you can embed those into your content by clicking the Source button in the WYSIWYG Editor (first button listed in the screenshot above) and pasting the <iframe into the relevant spot.

Embedding a link in an Iframe

In order to embed a link in an Iframe within a lesson, follow these steps:
 

1. Select the Source button within a lesson to open the HTML source code editor
2. Paste the following code into the editor
    
   

   <div style="position: relative; display: block; max-width: 960px;">

   <div style="padding-top: 56.25%;"><iframe title=”Survey” src="https://www.samplelinkaddress" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; right: 0px; bottom: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%;"></iframe></div>

   </div>
    

   1. Replace the link in red with the specific link you would like to embed
   2. Suggested styling is already included in the code above. You can update the style if you wish, contact support if you encounter issues with desired styling. 
3. Click Save 
4. Select Publish Changes when ready to build your course 
    

NOTE: The steps above are applicable for any link (ie. SurveyMoneky, Brightcove) unless the source of the link blocks the Iframe or if javascript is involved - contact support for further assistance.
