HTML Embed Block Read More Link
I've searched and can't find a good answer to this. Trying to embed an HTML link and I'm getting the first line of text on my HTML link, rather than the full page viewable through the block. Took a screenshot (uploaded).
Here's a link to a preview.

I have noticed this as well. When you use the embed block, the image from the embedded video or webpage shows. If you embed from a different block (for example, a Process block), I only see the one-line text. I am curious about this as well.
Hi Karin!
Would you be able to share the URL of what you are embedding in a process block?
Karin, that's with the vanilla Embed block. Weird though! Doesn't seem to work as I'd expect.
More information, it doesn't do this with say a Google form.
Is there something about a Google form that communicates differently with Rise?
Figured this out, so posting answer in case someone needs it.
Instead of using the URL, paste the URL in an iframe code...replacing URL. Apparently it only works natively with Embedly content.
<iframe src="URL"></iframe>Interesting...but it does not help my situation. Thanks for sharing.
You're right Karin, they do look different and there isn't a way to change this right now.
I also tried embedding your URL in an iframe but the site will not allow it.
Yes, I know that...but WHY do they look different? That is what I am trying to figure out? Have you asked your tech people by any chance?
The difference in displaying the information is by design. The available space is smaller in the Process block compared to the more spacious section when you use Multimedia> Embed. I hope this answers your question!
