Hello, I’m trying to find on this specific wordpress layout, how I can one, incorporate this link ( //ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ac&ref=qf_sp_asin_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=amazonstor007-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=B000V9E5KQ&asins=B000V9E5KQ&linkId=46a7ca2325bf908ac3c75be2de85d6b3&show_border=true&link_opens_in_new_window=true&price_color=333333&title_color=0066c0&bg_color=ffffff ) into my posts. I tried on both the HTML and visual section and I just get a link instead of a picture.

Also, I wanted to put this same link on the right hand side underneath one of my posts ( so this link would be under the ‘leave comment’ section).

Is this possible or is there no way to do this ? Maybe I need to provide another link?

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

Howdy zergsprincess!
Looking into your code they are Iframe’s , WordPress.com does not support them for security reasons, here is a quote to explain it better
```
Flash and other types of embed that use; frame, iframe, form, input, object, textarea are not allowed in WordPress.com posts, pages, or text widgets.

For security reasons, we remove the tags needed for these to work. Your intentions may be innocent, but someone somewhere might try to use such embeds to damage the site, affecting all of our users.
```
Here is the support Document to read about it more Codes Supported
So affiliate links which are supported here on WordPress would be more useful.
But as I also checked it seems a Amazon link, here is a guide which could be helpful to <a href=”https://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-amazon-com-affiliate-links-to-your-wordpress-com-site/

Hope this helps, let us know for any further assistance..!

Wow, thank you so much !

I understand and now it’s clear.

I had another, but maybe I should post it on the forum?

With my current WordPress theme, I’m not sure how I arrange things on the right side of any postings that I click on.

Could you help me with this as well? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. Von meinem iPhone gesendet

Hi Again!
Yeah you can post the Code in the Forum, or better just try it directly in the place you would like to, the way it showed in the Amazon affiliate link steps, so you would know if it’s working correctly.

So do you mean you want to manage the Content on your Right Hand Sidebar?
Where you have “Recent Post” “SideBar” and others ?
You can manage them by navigating to your Dashboard
Themes–>Customize–>Widgets–>Sidebar
You can manage them, arrange them from them, also just an idea,
if you would like to have your Affiliate Links you can use Text Widget

Also, you can manage its Visibility, for example, if you would like to have some links to particular pages or posts only, which might be suitable for you..!
Hope this helps, let us know for any further information..!
