Thanks man 🤩 Been looking for how I can create dynamic checkout pages so that each will have it's own price for the e-book and description on the html form that will take their info to my flutterwave payment page.

You are welcome. I’m glad you found it helpful.

Thank you. It's a great video! Do you know of any way to upload either via CSV or API into this rich text field, the Customs Code? I need to dynamically embed posts from social media that will change multiple times a day, and going in manually to add the custom code to the editor isn't feasible. Currently if I upload into the rich text it treats it like text, not as custom code.

[@clcreativedallas]

I don’t. The rich text field is tricky. Needs to be improved on Webflow’s end. I know you can do it from the CMS using the embed inside a rich text. But not sure how to do it programmatically via API.

[@DataFreelanceHub]

Thanks for the quick response @@clcreativedallas - I messaged support and this was what they said as well: Alex here from Webflow Support. Thanks for your message about bulk importing custom code into a CMS item. At the moment, Webflow's API and CSV import features do not support adding custom code embeds to rich text fields within CMS items. Attempting to add custom code via the API or CSV will strip all child HTML elements and return an empty where the custom code embed is placed, instead of showing the nested code. An alternative here is to utilize our custom code endpoints which allow you to add registered scripts to a page - Custom code | Webflow API Reference. You could use this functionality to add a script that embeds the custom code into the required section on the page. While this might be a much more involved workaround for this limitation, my hope is that it gets you unblocked at this time.

[@clcreativedallas]

@@DataFreelanceHub You are welcome. Thank you for sharing Webflow's response. I have not had experience doing it the way they are mentioning. But it is good to know that there is a way to do it if need be. I hope you find the answer you are looking for. If you do find a video someone else has done on this, let me know. I would be interested to see their solution.

Thanks! I'm trying to embed a set of webpages from another website. I want the to be responsive but as you step through the pages of the external site in the internal Iframe some of the content gets cut off as some are longer than others. Can the behave dynamically based on the changes to internal content?

[@clcreativedallas]

I’m not sure. Iframes can be tough. It depends on how the actual was developed.
