Hi Greg,

Thank you so much for taking the time to look into this a little further. I really appreciate it.

I realise any further work on this would be well beyond the call of duty (arguably you’ve already gone way past that point!). Would you perhaps be interested in doing some paid consultancy work for us to help integrate the Nibble forum into the Save My Exams website?

As for Weebly, they are almost 100% useless when it comes to providing any support for integrating 3rd party applications into their sites.

Many thanks again for you help so far.

Best,

Jamie

This is definitely a support question for Weebly.

When I look at the code in your page surrounding the Nabble code I see this:

<div class="wsite-section-elements">
  <div>
    <div id="514760455186932684" align="left" style="width: 100%; overflow-y: hidden;" class="wcustomhtml">
      <a id="nabblelink" href="http://save-my-exams-forum.2368031.n4.nabble.com/">Save My Exams! Forum</a>
      <script src="http://save-my-exams-forum.2368031.n4.nabble.com/embed/f1"></script>
    </div>
  </div>
and a lot more stuff before a final closing
</div>

This shows that you have embedded the full Nabble code, which as you see comes in two parts:
# A link to your forum (in effect fallback code in case the script doesn't take effect)
# Some JavaScript code that should embed the forum and remove the the link.

As, the correct Nabble code does appear on your page yet the script doesn't take effect it must be down to its position in the code and the styling of the various "div"s that surround it. Some of the styling will take effect as a result of the various IDs and Classes attached to the various structures into which you have placed the Nabble code.

I am deeply suspicious of the part that says "overflow-y: hidden;" which suggests to me is designed to hide any content after the text that forms the link. The script itself isn't "content" in the HTML sense.

I know this is rather technical and the whole point of using Weebly is to hide you from these technicalities, but it does suggest to me that there is some feature within the Weebly interface that has been overlooked and that will require Weebly support to provide an answer.
