Question

I created a New query rule for our Search Center in SP2016 Enterprise. The query looks for "Query Contains action Item" in the Query Conditions and I added an action term "acquisitions".

I also added a Promoted Result "WARINING: This Content is Classified as Confidential" with a URL to the Legal Policy. In the "Edit Promoted Result" dialog Window, I checked "Render the URL as a banner".

The search result throws an error when this is Checked, stating "This content cannot be displayed in a frame"

Could this be a bug?

Solution

The display template is attempting to use an iFrame to render the content. It is likely that your ContentPolicies page is not "iFrame-able". (It probably also will look like crap in that tiny frame.)

What I would do is upload an ASPX file to the Search Center documents library that contains a good looking rendering and warning with a link to the ContentPolicies page.

This is one I use in a similar scenario for "Training Content". Save it as an ASPX file and it works great. (I use an image that is 500x140px.)
