Adding Trusted Domains

You can add as many trusted domains to a group as you need. By adding a URL as a trusted domain, it will be considered an approved site and can be displayed in your published output. For example, in one of your Flare topics maybe you have inserted a link to an external website within an IFrame. Without setting that domain as trusted, the site might fail to display due to certain security policies (see Security Headers and Trusted Domains).
