 * Hi… my site uses iframe to display charts. It seems to have stopped working, 
   just displaying the [iframe…] instead.
 * Please see [this page](http://blog.antipole.co.uk/cruise-logs/2011-2/) as an 
   example. Note that the blue ‘open map in separate window’ link opens the same
   chart and that works OK. But I can no longer get the chart to display in the 
   page.
 * Any pointers, please?
 * WP 4.6.1 multisite
    iframe 4.3

 * Do you have iframe plugin activated?
    Are you inserting shortcode into content
   area? You may try to retype quotes inside of the shortcode. Right now quotes 
   are different and it can be the source of the issue too.

 * Hi – thanks for responding…
 * Yes the plugin is activated.
    Yes the short code is in the content area of a 
   page.
 * The quotes are plain ” in the source. I have re-typed them. No better.
 * I have checked and another unrelated short code elsewhere on the site is working,
   so it is not a problem with short codes _per se_.
 * I have just re-typed the whole line and now it is working!
    thanks a lot!

 * So that was some weird character in the shortcode (can be even something invisible).
   
   And WordPress was not able to parse it properly.

 * Same here.. retyping the whole line fixed it.
