  I’ve searched various questions related to feedburner and can’t find an answer to my specific question, but I apologise if it’s already out there somewhere.

  I’ve just signed up to FeedBurner and I’m trying to copy my Subscription Link Code into a text widget on my blog, but I’ve hit a snag and can’t find a way around it. The subscription link code on the FeedBurner page isn’t text – it’s an image, so I can’t c&p it into the text widget. I can’t even do it handraulically because the entire image isn’t visible.

  Am I being stoopid here, or is this a problem others have encountered?

  Forgive me. I was being stoopid and have figured it out now.

  In Feedburner, go to Publicize > Email Subscriptions. The first link code, called “Subscription Form Code” will not work in wordpress.com. You will have to use the other code, called “Subscription Link Code”. Copy and paste that into a text widget. Save and Save Changes.Preview. When clicked this link will bring up the feed page where your reader can decide how he/she wants to subscribe to your feed.
