[Feature Request] Adopt Plausible's iframe height setting mechanism #224
Description
What
When embedding a Plausible Dashboard one is given a script tag that sets the height of the iframe automatically. Plausible is emitting an event with the height data that is listened to and applied to the Plausible iframe.
Adding the same to OpenPanel is a great way to improve the quality of life of embeddings.

Sure, sounds like a good idea. Please provide me with code sample and I can do that

I dug in the Plausible codebase and found this:
https://github.com/plausible/analytics/blob/master/assets/js/embed.host.js
<script async src="https://plausible.io/js/embed.host.js"></script>fix: iframe resize #224

I got this working but radix modals screws me a bit, since they are miss-placed (centered of the content height) and you cannot scroll (since radix disables scroll). Not really sure how to get around this now.

You have a branch up if you want to play around with it or if you have any solutions I would love to hear them.
IF ANYONE WANT TO CONTRIBUTE, HERE IS A GREAT FIRST ISSUE

Opened #491 for this.
Takes the direction from
feature/iframe-resize(thanks @lindesvard) but uses a smallpostMessagehost script instead of iframe-resizer, and pins Radix dialogs to the visible iframe slice so they stay on-screen while the parent scrolls.lindesvard commentedon Sep 7, 2026
@grootbro hero! I'll take a look

@lindesvard Thanks! And thanks for the earlier work on
feature/iframe-resize— it was a helpful starting point. Happy to hear your feedback on #491.
