Trying to embed Nabble forum on my website

I am using webflow to make my site.  I can drop an element on my page which contains an html embed.  It's not working though.  There is a link to my forum, which takes me to the forum, but i believe the forum is supposed to show up on my page.  What do I do.

Thanks

It appears that it's a HTTPS issue, as per the mixed content error in the console.

If you want to embed on a HTTPS site, you will need to set the forum to https.
First you need to set a custom domain for your forum, with the same base domain as the site you're embedding on. For example, forum.jacobanddebbieacro.com. You'll need to set a CNAME record that points to n8.nabble.com.
more information:

Once you've done that, I'll be able to enable https on our end.

I inserted Nabble into the c name record on Name Silo.  I included a screenshot so you can see if that is all right.  

Thank you for your help.  So you can enable https for the forum?

I've enabled https.
I had to wait for the DNS changes to propagate before I could do it.
Try updating your embed code which you can get from Options > Embedding Options.

It's still not quite working.  It says it is not secure.  This is the code it gave me.  It looks right

jacobanddebbieacro
<script src="https://forum.jacobanddebbieacro.com/embed/f1"></script>
I set it to use my domain name and I set a cname for my forum.  forum.jacobanddebbieacro.com



Do you know why it isn't working?  Also, is it possible I need to have my webhost allow this forum.  Webflow.

Thanks

It's working now. Maybe it was a cache issue.

My forum works now.  Thank you very much for the help.  Although on Chrome is still says not secure.  I tried on firefox and safari and there was no problem.  So something is still wrong with chrome.  Also I am trying to get the nabble blog to work too.  It it not working yet.  I have it embedded in the same way as the forum.  It is here

https://blog.jacobanddebbieacro.com/

The blog is a blue link on all three browsers.  I tried removing all the cookies and that didn't do anything

Thanks
