This only works on WordPress version 4.0 and above.

Internals

It is required that thecrag embedded iframes be dynamically resized to the embeded content. This is quite a tedious task for cross domain iframes, but luckily we can use David Bradshaw's iframe-resizer project (https://github.com/davidjbradshaw/iframe-resizer) to achieve this. The iframeResizer.min.js javascript file is included in this plugin.

TO DO

• Document some good example sites.
• Get feedback on the additional url's that would be interesting to embed.
• Register the plugin on official word press site.
