Thank you! I am about to pull all of my hair out trying to figure this out and can’t seems to get any help from Wix. I have built my site which has taken forever but am just now realizing the most important feature doesn’t work.
Hi Kristen,
Using Wix Code it is possible to interact with an html element by passing parameters from the page.
Check out the following article
Thank you for your help! How would I use this to call a cell on the database?
Hi,
If you’re using a dataset (for example the dynamic page dataset), you can get the current item with getCurrentItem.
http://www.wix.com/code/reference/wix-dataset.html#getCurrentItem
Otherwise, you can query the collection with wixData.query
http://www.wix.com/code/reference/wix-data.html#query
Once you get the parameters from the collection, call postMessage with the relevant parameters to interact with the iframe code. Note that the iframe code should support this functionality.
