Why Does Embedded Content Not Appear In Page Preview But Shows On The Live Public Page In AMP CMS?
When embedding third-party content (such as contests from Second Street) in AMP CMS, you may notice that the content does not appear in the page preview or admin view, but it does display correctly on the live public page. This is a common behavior and is typically due to how embedded <iframe> or script content is handled in preview environments versus live environments. Some code providers restrict previewing their embeds in backend or preview modes for security or technical reasons.
Resolution:
- After updating your page in AMP CMS, always check the live public URL to verify that your embedded content is displaying correctly.
- Do not rely solely on the page preview or admin view for embedded third-party content, as it may not be supported in those views.
If the content appears on the live public page but not in preview, this is expected behavior and does not indicate an issue with your embed code or AMP CMS.
