Hmm, that’s definitely strange. It doesn’t look like that URL you’ve posted actually has the Content Mask iframe on it, however. Can you tell me which link does have it? Feel free to send it to me via the contact form on my website: https://xhynk.com/ if you don’t want it made public, and I’ll take a look!

Unfortunately this plugin won’t work for pulling in parts or sections of URLs, it’s also not designed to allow you to display the main main header/footer.

The issue is that different themes implement their headers and footers radically differently, so there doesn’t appear to be a great way to incorporate them to surround the masked content.

As for pulling in content and hiding parts, you can put script/style tags on the download method to assist in that – but it may not suite your specific needs as there’s not an easy way to reincorporate your main sites’ header and footer.

The goal of the plugin is to embed an <b>entire</b> content structure from an external URL, so it essentially kills the request to your main site and loads the content/structure from the embedded URL

I’m going to re-address this:

You can’t import more than one URL into a page, it works by creating a page on your WordPress site: https://example.com/page/

And fetching the desired content from “https://some-other-site.com/my-page&#8221;, and then showing that content on your “https://example.com/page/&#8221; URL.

As of version 1.6 you can add Scripts and Styles to the content if you’d like. If there’s anything else you have in mind for “customizing the options” – feel free to ask!

Just a note – As of Content Mask version 1.6, there is a Custom Scripts and Styles feature, as well as embedded hooks, that allow you to modify the iframe slightly. It wouldn’t address the “trick the viewport” issue, but allows for some simple modifications like sizing and adding backgrounds to semi-transparent frames.

I’ve pushed Content Mask version 1.5.2.1 to the repository with some backwards compatibility for PHP 5.4.

Since it’s so out of date I don’t actually have access to a PHP 5.4 installation, but I ran it through some unit testing on an online sandbox running PHP 5.4 and it seemed to be stable with no errors. Can you try installing it again and let me know if it works?

Again I’d recommend upgrading PHP as soon as you’re able due to security vulnerabilities, but I believe Content Mask should run on 5.4 now; though if it throws any more errors, feel free to post them here and I can take a look.

This means you are using a PHP Version that’s below 5.6, the minimum required PHP Version.

I suggest you talk to your host about upgrading, since PHP 5.5 reached end-of-life in 2015 and stopped receiving important security updates mid 2016. PHP 5.4 reached end-of-life in 2014 and stopped receiving important security updates in mid-2015.

If your host is unable to upgrade you to PHP 5.6, let me know which PHP version you’re using, and I’ll see if I can push out a backwards compatibility patch, depending on the version you’re using.

Looks like this was resolved with the removal of the opt-out notice in 12.4.0

I’m glad I was able to help, and thank you so much for the feedback, it means a lot!

Unfortunately, it doesn’t change the “primary” url. Let’s say you have primary.com and secondary.com.

If you want primary.com/masked-page/ to be secondary.com/masked-page/ – you would need to put this plugin on secondary.com, and add the content mask there, and redirect primary.com/masked-page/ – it would get kind of convoluted, and there are better solutions out there for that.

Basically, this plugin works “the other way around”, allowing you to embed content from secondary.com/page-you-want-to-copy/ into primary.com/page/

Hi Yassar,

I’m not entirely sure I understand your question. If your could clarify your question a bit more, I’d be more than happy to help.

Hi Peter,

When you are logged in as an Administrator – you should be able to see a red [X] on the consent notices. If you click on that, it will remove it from that particular form. Let me know if you have any other questions

Thank you so much for the feedback, I sincerely appreciate it!

I’m just glad to know that this plugin is actively helping others, it’s my pleasure!

I believe I was actually able to find the issue – it was a conflict with the new hook I used for the Page Processing – only when the Content Masked page was set to the homepage.

I reverted that hook and moved some of the new functionality into it and tested it on a masked home page and it appears to be working again.

I’ve pushed that (and a few other minor changes) out in 1.4.3.1 as a bug-fix release – you should be able to update it soon, if not already.

Let me know if it works – if not I’ll take another look!

I made a relatively significant change to the handling of the redirect in 1.4.2 that speeds up redirection – Can you let me know what version of PHP and WordPress you are using and if you recall the last version of the plugin that was working properly?

Looking forward to get this working for you again!
