WordPress Google Drive Embedder: How to Easily Embed Docs in WordPress

If you're a Google Docs power user who also manages a WordPress website, embedding your documents directly into your posts or pages can streamline your workflow and make content sharing seamless. That's where a WordPress Google Drive embedder comes in handy.

But here’s the twist: what if you want a better way to manage your WordPress content creation in Google Docs first, then bring it into WordPress? That’s where Docswrite.com shines.

Docswrite isn't just another plugin. It’s a fully managed web-based solution that connects Google Docs and WordPress like never before. You write and format your content inside Google Docs, then publish it to WordPress with one click. Let's explore how you can embed Google Docs in WordPress and take it a step further with Docswrite.


5 Steps to Embed Google Docs in WordPress

  1. Get the Shareable Link from Google Docs
    Open your Google Doc, click File > Share > Copy Link , and make sure the link settings are set to "Anyone with the link can view."
  2. Use an Embed Plugin or Gutenberg Block
    If you're using the Gutenberg editor, insert a "Custom HTML" block and paste in the iframe code. Alternatively, install a plugin like "Embed Any Document" to simplify this process.
  3. Paste the iFrame Code
    Here’s a sample iframe you can use:
    <iframe src="YOUR_DOCUMENT_LINK/preview" width="100%" height="600px"></iframe>
    Replace YOUR_DOCUMENT_LINK with your actual shared link (removing /edit at the end and adding /preview).
  4. Preview the Post
    Always preview your WordPress post before publishing to ensure the embedded document displays correctly.
  5. Hit Publish
    Once everything looks good, click Publish. Your Google Doc is now embedded in your WordPress post.
