Question 1

How to hide scrollbar from iFrame?

Accepted Answer

If you cannot use our JavaScript embed code, the remaining options are our iFrame embed code. In Wix's case, embed it as a link or external site. Wix will show it as an iFrame embed. The same goes with Google sites.

The disadvantage is, an iFrame will show a vertical scrollbar if the feed's content is longer than the iFrame height that you set. We cannot completely hide the iFrame scrollbar. We have some workarounds that might be good enough.

Anticipate the height of your feed's content. Set the height of your iFrame more than the height of your anticipated content.
Use a Slider Layout and set the height of your iFrame more than the height of your slider. This way, you can load more contents to the right or left. The default layout uses a load more button that shows up more content at the bottom of the feed. It will show a vertical scrollbar in that case.
Try to add scrolling="no" attribute to the iFrame or overflow:hidden; in your iFrame's CSS.

Question 2

What is a SociableKIT widget?

Accepted Answer

A SociableKIT Widget can be called a source, feed, kit, plugin, or solution.

You can view the list of our widgets here.

When you use SociableKIT, you can create, customize and embed different social media feeds and more on your website.

For example:

You created a SociableKIT widget for your Facebook page events. That means you created one SociableKIT widgets.
If you create another SociableKIT widget for example, to your YouTube channel videos. That means, you created two SociableKIT widgets already.

If you need to create another SociableKIT widgets for your other social media feed, that will depends on the subscription plan you will buy.

In KIT 5 plan, you are limited to create 5 SociableKIT widgets only. If your subscription is KIT 10 plan, it means you can create up to 10 SociableKIT widgets. You can use all of them on a single website or in your 10 websites.

Question 3

What are views per month?

Accepted Answer

Views per month are the total number of times all your SociableKIT widgets will load. For example, you have 5 widgets on your account. Each of them received 100 loads or page views. It means your views per month is 500.

The limit resets every month. This is another factor to consider when selecting the right plan for your account. If you go over your limit, SociableKIT will not display anything on your website. You need to wait for the views to reset or change your subscription plan for the widget to work without any interruption.

The more a SociableKIT widget loads, the more servers we need. Maintaining multiple servers are not cheap. It means we need to invest more to provide better SociableKIT widgets for you. That's why we need this metric.
