Can I paste the full Wistia iframe into the article?
No, paste only the iframe src URL into the Crisp frame syntax. The full Wistia iframe is useful to locate the embed URL, but Crisp articles should use ${frame}.

Check that your Wistia embed URL uses responsive options such as videoFoam=true. Also confirm that the article preview or published article is being used to test the final result.
