Thanks for reporting @mquandalle! I just checked those links and on both the embedded dashboard looks/works all fine on Firefox for me. Could you please share more info on what's not working for you? BTW please do make sure to disable any adblocker as they may block the embedded dashboard from loading

[mquandalle]

You are right this is indeed caused by ublock origin.

Any idea how we could workaround this issue so that ad blocker users could see the iframe embedded?

[metmarkosaric]

@mquandalle thanks for the update! unfortunately not that i know of. i asked the easyprivacy contributor who blocked our embed code from loading to consider removing the block as it's not a tracker, it's a useful part of people's websites and blocking it breaks the experience of visitors that use adblock but they declined to do so unfortunately

[mquandalle]

Maybe using a "self-hosted" proxy like for the tracking script could be a solution?

Unfortunately a naive proxy doesn't work: https://deploy-preview-348--publicodes-website.netlify.app/statistiques/
