  I did exactly what was asked, a URL from a site, CNN Money in this case, and the preview only shows the link, not the embedded video. Do I have to publish it to see it correctly?

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

  @damangoldberg I can see a CNN money video a recent post. Are you still having trouble?

  What I was trying to do is link directly from CNN Video, not Twitter. I followed the instructions and got nowhere. And you have a page subject on it.

  Can you send a link to the video you’re trying to link, or create a draft page or post with the code you tried to use, then update us here?

  Hi there,

  It appears we retired the CNNMoney shortcode some time ago, but the support document was never removed. I’ve removed it now.

  At the moment there is no way to embed video from CNNMoney on WordPress.com. I apologize for the inconvenience.
