  I’m a member of digital parents and want to add their badge to my “about me” page on my blog.
  I’ve tried pasting the embed code directly into the text box on the visual tab, and also on the text tab, but all I see is all the embed code or link to the digital parents web page.

  How can I add this embed code and have it display correctly?

  <embed wmode=”opaque” src=”http://static.ning.com/socialnetworkmain/widgets/index/swf/badge.swf?xn_version=124632088″ FlashVars=”backgroundColor=0xFFFFFF&textColor=0x50CAEF&config=http%3A%2F%2Fdigitalparents.com.au%2Fmain%2Fbadge%2FshowPlayerConfig%3Fxg_source%3Dbadge%26size%3Dmedium%26username%3D1nbrel72z3h5l” width=”206″ height=”174″ bgColor=”#FFFFFF” scale=”noscale” allowScriptAccess=”always” allowFullScreen=”true” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer”>

  That’s Flash, and for security reasons it will always be stripped out here. You can try converting it to a Gigya shortcode as explained here: http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/category/gigya/

  Thanks for the super quick response! I’m not very technical, so unfortunately that does not make any sense to me :(

  I changed the embed code to the text below, but still not working

  I can’t help you any further, not being a great code translator. It’s just a matter of tweaking the code until it works.
