What is AVVO. If it’s an advertising code or an affiliate code then no blogger initiated advertising is allowed on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

I’m developing a WordPress for an attorney that is very active on Avvo.com. They provide embedded badges and content feeds. I want to display the embedded badges using html code – but the widgets I tried rejected the embedded text, and they dont’ work using “tinyurl”. Suggestions?

We have code restrictions here. If they are iframes or JavaScript then the software will strip the code out to reserve security. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
If you post the code between backticks here in the forums we can examine it and assist you. The backtick ` not to be confused with the single quote mark ‘ is located to the left of the number 1 key in lower case under the tilde ~.

Hi there,
This is Jake Martin at Avvo.com. As thistimethisspace has mentioned, it is not possible to use the Avvo badge on WordPress.com hosted WordPress blogs because of the security features.
As such, we have seen many lawyers who have created a static image of their badge by taking a screen capture of their Avvo badge and uploading it to WordPress.com. The few caveats to this approach is that the Avvo badge with associated Avvo rating will not update automatically. Additionally, you will need to manually hyperlink the image back to your Avvo profile as well.

Thanks Jake.
