  Hello there,
  I’m trying to insert custom html code into a post on my website through a ‘Custom HTML’ block. The code has and tags but these tags gets stripped out and their content shows up as plain text.
  Is it true that websites hosted on wordpress.com can’t have and tags inside posts/pages? if so, is there an easy solution?

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

  Hi,

  The code has and tags but these tags gets stripped out and their content shows up as plain text.

  See the HTML Tags section of the Code support page for a list of tags that are allowed. Apparently the “and” tag isn’t included. Is there such a thing as an “and” HTML tag?
