It seems like the server is blocking <iframe> tags and not allowing them to be saved in the database. To resolve this issue, you can try the following solutions:

Whitelist <iframe> tags: Check if your server has any security measures in place that are blocking <iframe> tags. If so, you can try whitelisting <iframe> tags to allow them. This can usually be done in the server configuration or security settings.
Use a different tag: If <iframe> tags are consistently being blocked, you can try using a different tag to embed videos. For example, you can use the <video> tag or a custom tag that you define yourself.
Encode the <iframe> tag: If the server is blocking the <iframe> tag due to security concerns, you can try encoding the tag before saving it to the database. This can be done using PHP's htmlspecialchars() function or a similar function in your programming language.

Here's an example of how you can encode the <iframe> tag using PHP:

<?php
$iframeTag = '<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID"></iframe>';
$encodedIframeTag = htmlspecialchars($iframeTag);
echo $encodedIframeTag;
?>

This will convert the <iframe> tag into its HTML entity representation, which should bypass any server restrictions.

Remember to adjust the code according to your specific programming language and framework.
