    Subject: iFrame form on Facebook

    As per your instructions on FB search: HTML Static :iFrames.

    Thunderpenny site comes up but no choices to get the  Jotform app. Just used the Static HTML app.

    From Jotform I copied the iFrame to clipboard and dropped in the Thunderpenny index.html page | saved and tried to preview from preview button.

    Nothing seems to be the same as my other site using a JotForm on FB has stopped working too.

    Regards,

    Ken Wood

    I checked your Facebook page and I was able to replicate the issue. Here's a screenshot:

    Please try removing the app and adding it back again. Here's a guide: Adding-a-Form-to-Your-Facebook-Page

    If the issue is still the same, please try changing the form within the app by clicking the gear/settings icon.

    I don't have a clue what is happening. I opened FB is Chrome instead of
    Firefox and got the "Contact Us" but it opened with the 404 error.
    I'll try tomorrow as con't spend any more time on it for now.
    Thanks for your help.

    Ok. Please try removing the form tab from your facebook page and then logout of your facebook account. Now go to your JotForm Publish wizard and then try adding the facebook tab as provided in the guide Adding-a-Form-to-Your-Facebook-Page.

    You'll be prompted to login to your facebook account and then select the page that you want to display the form.

    Please check and let us know if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to assist you further.

    I think the bug is JotForm's!
    https://www.facebook.com/Carvalueappraisercom-390251607791508/ the
    iFrame is dead.
    You can see the right side contact us "Car Appraisal" sticker. It opens
    but doesn't have the iFrame code.
    But I don't think it is a FB issue; it is a JotForm issue.
    Here is my Carvalue Appraisal WordPress site with the same iFrame code
    form on it: http://www.carvalueappraiser.com (click the Appraisal Form
    link)
    This was working a couple of weeks ago and it is now busted, too.
    Pretty sure it is a JotForm bug.
    I'll test anything you want.

    What is the form you are trying to embed via HTML Static Iframe? Please try adding the form through another method, the one explained on this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/22-Adding-a-Form-to-Your-Facebook-Page

    I've tried that on both FB sites and it never gets the iFrame code.
    What changed?
    And, the Jotform iFrames form died on my WordPress site where is was working fine.
    As far as I can see it doesn't work anywhere.
    I need to know what changed!
    Do we need to have a live phone call on this?
    I am available all Friday AM.
