I need to add iframes to articles, just as described in this question: iframe gets deleted in joomla jce editor
I tried all of what's mentioned in the replies to that questin (except plugin - I just want to copy/paste an iframe) - no luck, iframes still removed. Joomla 3.4.5, JCE 2.5.11
(I'd have written this in a comment to the linked question, but not allowed)
One way to find out if the iframe gets deleted by the editor is to disable JCE, and select no editor, then try to save your article with the iframe code pasted in the article body.
To select no editor, go to:
Global Configuration -> Site -> Editor = set to none
Start a new article (so you don't have to care if you mess with any existing published articles), and paste your iframe code and save. If it still gets removed, then it's not a setting with JCE and you should look elsewhere (like content blacklists/whitelists filters).
If however the iframe wasn't removed this time, then it's something with the settings in JCE and you should review them again, following the instructions in the post you found.
I don't know what is wrong with your Joomla! to prevent the normal solutions from working, but you can just circumvent the issue by installing Sourcerer. It usually works and makes adding html to articles in wysiwg mode simple. The link is to the part of tutorial where this is explained so you can directly see if it is simple enough for you. The free version should be good enough for this.
