Please try it on an iframe in your website and tell us what have you done to make it work.

That's a question for that project, and not for MediaWiki? What does "on" mean in "on MediaWiki"? Please also see "Post a new question" in the sidebar.

@Malyacko "on" means as a software layer on top of another software layer, using this plugin on top of MediaWiki.

I seek help in how to install this particular plug in, on top of MediaWiki...

@Malyacko I get the point that this thread doesn't belong here.

If you wish, please delete this post. I am totally fine with that.

Which exact software does that "plugin" plug in? It does not sound like MediaWiki.

@Malyacko I am sorry, I didn't understand.

One should be able to install it on any website.

You say it's a plugin. So what does it "plug into"? If you know that you can "install it on any website", I don't understand what the problem is - that software should probably have documentation to install it.

@Malyacko it plugs into a program. It's a software module which could be installed on top of any (web) program.

I didn't manage to understand the documentation on start but someone of the community of that plug in helped me.

The "abusefilter" here doesn't allow me to paste the relevant source code patterns here but here is a reference to the discussion where I got that help:

@Malyacko I don't think so, an explanation about how to use the plugin on a website is given in the GitHub discussion I linked to above, which generally doesn't require using any MediaWiki syntax.
