My Question or Issue

We're embedding podcast episodes into our Wordpress website, using the embed code found on our Creators page.

eg. <iframe src="https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/myshow/embed/episodes/episode-id" height="102px" width="400px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

This has always worked well, but we've now suddenly started to get a cookie banner appear directly within the iframe. This is very obstructive, and is impacting our users who aren't then interacting with our podcasts on the page. Is there a way to remove the cookie banner?

I would also be very interested to know how to stop this. In my case, the embed is located further down the page. Upon arrival to the page, the user is scrolled to the bottom. Again, Wordpress site, and have only noticed its been happening for the last 3 or so weeks.

Hey, 

So, worked it out. Share/embed the player from a user account of Spotify not the creator. 

I logged into my personal account. Click embed select the look I want then copy the code and paste. Worked great. 

At least till they realise and change the code again LOL. 

Thanks

For me it doesn't work because the code is the exact same one.

Can you share both codes you got so I can see if I can make it work for mine?

Thanks!

I've got a customer who is having the same issue. Thanks Balvason for the workaround, but it would be helpful for this to be fixed!

Hey all, the cookie banner is displayed on all web-based applications, including embedding Spotify content like podcast episodes on third-party websites. So I'm afraid there isn't a way to remove these. However, I've noted all these comments and will pass them on to the correct team.

Hi Podfather,

It's not so much it displays but it autoscrolls the page on load and pulls the user to that section of the page if the iFrame wrapper is place in an area off screen. 

Just presents a bad user experience. 

But thank for passing this on.
