[FIXED] How to embed Instagram post using Tiny MCE editor

Issue

I'm copying instagram embed code in tinymce source code and i can see the block of instagram but couldn't able to see the image. Please help me fix this issue

Solution

The problem is that when you add the embed code to tinymce. The code gets rendered in an iframe and the source code does not execute. The best approach in this case is to add a popup to take the embed code, extract the src from it and append it to the head of the iframe. This way the source code will execute and you will get a rendered html.

var editor_id = "";
tinymce.PluginManager.add('instagram', function(editor, url) {
    // Add a button that opens a window
    editor.addButton('instagram', {
        text: 'Instagram',
        icon: false,
        onclick: function() {
            // Open window
            editor.windowManager.open({
                title: 'Instagram Embed',
                body: [
                    {   type: 'textbox',
                        size: 40,
                        height: '100px',
                        name: 'instagram',
                        label: 'instagram'
                    }
                ],
                onsubmit: function(e) {
                    // Insert content when the window form is submitted
                    var embedCode = e.data.instagram;
                    var script = embedCode.match(/<script.*<\/script>/)[0];
                    var scriptSrc = script.match(/".*\.js/)[0].split("\"")[1];
                    var sc = document.createElement("script");
                    sc.setAttribute("src", scriptSrc);
                    sc.setAttribute("type", "text/javascript");

                    var iframe = document.getElementById(editor_id + "_ifr");
                    var iframeHead = iframe.contentWindow.document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];

                    tinyMCE.activeEditor.insertContent(e.data.instagram);
                    iframeHead.appendChild(sc);
                    // editor.insertContent('Title: ' + e.data.title);
                }
            });
        }
    });
});
tinymce.init({
    selector:'textarea',
    toolbar: 'bold italic | alignleft aligncenter alignright alignjustify | undo redo | link image media | code preview | fullscreen | instagram',
    plugins: "wordcount fullscreen link image code preview media instagram",
    menubar: "",
    extended_valid_elements : "script[language|type|async|src|charset]",
    setup: function (editor) {
        console.log(editor);
        editor.on('init', function (args) {
            editor_id = args.target.id;
        });
    }
});

You can add the embed html from the Instagram toolbar button and get the rendered html, but this also messes the source code. Hope this is helpful.
