I was wondering if it would be possible to embed an html page or add an iframe into a dashboard widget.
I have a multi author blog and i want to make my admin section a simple as possible for some of my author’s are less “technical”.
So I already added a simple widget containing some text. And I took out the less interesting widgets. And I added some links so they can stay on their dashboard page but be able to do everything they had to do.
But I thought it would also be interesting to embed some sort of comment box so they could like talk to each other and discuss things. something like this
http://www.htmlcommentbox.com
I gives you some html code wich you can paste into your webpage.
So I started to experiment but all the things I tried came out negative. I thought that if I would be able to simply embed it into a widget or embed it on a html page and view it trough an Iframe it could work. But like I said can’t seem to pull it off.
Is it possible? or am I just wasting my time?
