  I am an Amazon affiliate and when I cut and past the widget code to my blog post, the widget does not show, just the code I pasted. Can you help me?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Please make sure the code is accepted on WordPress.com as seen here:

  Code

  If you believe your code should be accepted and it is still now working, copy and paste the code in your reply and I’d be happy to take a further look.

  Cheers!

  Thanks for your response! Here is an example of the code from Amazon that I can’t get onto my blog:

  <script charset=”utf-8″ type=”text/javascript”>
  amzn_assoc_ad_type = “responsive_search_widget”;
  amzn_assoc_tracking_id = “golfandmorego-20”;
  amzn_assoc_link_id = “4UJZKNRSX5NRIKGS”;
  amzn_assoc_marketplace = “amazon”;
  amzn_assoc_region = “US”;
  amzn_assoc_placement = “”;
  amzn_assoc_search_type = “search_widget”;
  amzn_assoc_width = “auto”;
  amzn_assoc_height = “auto”;
  amzn_assoc_default_search_category = “”;
  amzn_assoc_default_search_key = “”;
  amzn_assoc_theme = “light”;
  amzn_assoc_bg_color = “FFFFFF”;
  </script>
  <script src=”//z-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&Operation=GetScript&ID=OneJS&WS=1&MarketPlace=US”></script>

  As mentioned in that support guide Javascript would not be allowed on WordPress.com. I’m sorry, but you wouldn’t be able to add this code to your site. If they have an HTML version of this, you may be able to add it.
