External Site Won't Load In The iframe

    Got LBP installed with no hitches. Can not get an external site to load.

    I have it installed on 2 servers. 1 is a WAMP and 1 is live with identical settings. On the local install the box loads and the busy icon keeps circling with no page appearing. I added menu items with 2 different links. One to a WordPress site and 1 to a static site.

    One the live site, the lightbox appears, with no icon swirling and no page. I set the width, height, and use iframe options.

    The live on is at http:stripedape.com. The links are on the top nav menu underneath Blog.

    I have tried every setting I can think of. I have removed the other Jquery script referenced in the functions.php

    Anything I am obviously doing wrong before I take down all the other plugins?

    thanks, Eric

    I intended to mention that both sites are on the Genesis Framework. The local site is on Minimum Pro Child Theme. The live one is Agency 2.0.

    I think all WP core websites have iframe blocked.
    I cannot show WP codex, bbPress codex, BuddyPress codex in iframe popup.
    It is easy to do it in .htaccess with few lines of code. Maybe some other websites have as well same protection.

    I am having the same issue. I couldn’t get YouTube vids to work, till I realized I had to use the embed link. Now those look great, so I was moving on to trying to have a link to a Pinterest image open up that linked Pinterest page in the lightbox window, but I get the description, and I get a scroll bar, but just blank space where the page should be. Has anyone resolved?
