Carousel / Grid

Embed feed - Carousel or Grid allows the content to be displayed as a row or grid of thumbnails. Embed feeds are usually used for content discovery where the user can see multiple content and increases the chance to initiate the content engagement.

Integration

Place the javascript part either on the <head> or <body> or right above the Firework component you are adding.

<script async src="//asset.fwcdn3.com/js/embed-feed.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>

Place the web component where the feed should be displayed.

<fw-embed-feed
  channel="your-channel"
  mode="row"
></fw-embed-feed>

Visit https://wordpress.org/plugins/firework-videos/#installation or search for Firework Videos in your WordPress Admin plugins area.
Follow the instructions to install, activate and place the plugin's widget.
Connect your feed using provided app_id

Direct Javascript integration works for Wordpress as well. Use https://wordpress.org/plugins/ad-inserter/ to simplify copy&paste.

        <amp-iframe height="300" layout="fixed-height" resizable width="auto" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-top-navigation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"
            src="https://fw.tv/iframe/embed-feed?&channel={CHANNEL}&open_in=_blank&page_url={{fwn.source_url}}"
        >
            <div overflow>Loading videos...</div>
            <div placeholder style="text-align:center;margin:50px 0;">
                <amp-img layout="fixed" width="300" height="118" src="https://asset.fireworktv.com/images/amp/firework.png"></amp-img>

Firework provides iframe integration with some limitations, like opening a video in new tab only. Any attributes needs to be provided as a querystring to the iframe src attribute. Read more about iframe limitations here.

<iframe
  frameborder="0"
  height="400"
  width="100%"
  sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-top-navigation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"
  src="https://fw.tv/iframe/embed-feed?&channel={CHANNEL}&open_in=_blank&page_url={CURRENT_PAGE}"
></iframe>

Firework's iframe solution should be suitable for Facebook Instant Articles without any issues. Please follow the FB guidelines on how to include embeds. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instant-articles/reference/embeds

In case your page uses multiple widget components, insert <script> tag with combined fwn.js file instead of requesting each js file individually. This would improve your performance.

Example:

<script async src="//asset.fwcdn3.com/js/fwn.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>
