Occasionally, when trying to embed a post from X into a Voltax article, the embed will fail to render, even though the X post is public and valid.
For posts that fail to embed, you can use an alternative, direct iFrame method that calls the content from X's older, dedicated embed platform.
Important Note: If the standard X embed feature in Voltax works for your post, please continue to use it. This iFrame workaround should only be used when the automated embed process fails.
Steps to Implement the iFrame Workaround
-
Get the Tweet ID- Locate the full URL of the X post that is failing to embed (e.g., https://x.com/DalkeKong3/status/**1989857912609505743**)
The Tweet ID is the long string of numbers at the very end of the URL. - Construct the iFrame Code- Use the following template and replace the placeholder text [YOUR_TWEET_ID] with the number you copied in Step 1.
Template:
<iframe height="737" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?id=[YOUR_TWEET_ID]" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
Example:
<iframe height="737" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?id=1989857912609505743" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
Insert the Code into Voltax- In your Voltax editor, navigate to the article you are editing, select Media and choose iFrame, then paste the complete iFrame code you constructed in Step 2.
Save and publish your article. The post should now render correctly.
