This may be a very simple question, but I am trying to find out how I can update the website shown inside the iframe based on a button press on my page.

For example on my page i want to show one url in the iframe when visitors first come to the page. Then if they click on a button on the source page I want to update the iframe with a new URL and display the new content. The content is all on the same domain.

Is this feature in the pro version? Is it something that is done in shortcode? I do not have much knowledge or javascript or CS

It looks like this might be what I need

Example 49: Using placeholders in the src parameter (pro)

No - this is basic html. You set the target of the link to the id of the iframe - done.
