  I want to embed a postlets ad here is my code: < iframe style=”width:385px; height:510px; “src=”(then this is the postlet listing url ” frameborder=”0″ marginheight=”0″ marginwidth=”0″>< /iframe >
  I can’t seem to figure out just why I can’t embed this mini post from postlet, on postlets.com they say you can use it on wordpress. What am I doing wrong? Note I put spaces in that just in case for this. It’s an iframe, can I not embed?

  iframes are not allowed at wordpress.com due to security concerns and neither is javascript, shockwave flash, or forms for the same reason.

  Thank you, however is it allowed on a wordpress blog hosted on godaddy, for ie it’s my own website with the wordpress installed? Or not, can I still not advertise? i tried the iframe code and it doesn’t work on that either.. Any help or explanation or an alternative is appreciated THANK YOU!

  Self-hosted blogs, such as the one you mention on godaddy are not the same as blogs hosted here on wordpress.com. Since this is a multiuser blogging platform, all bloggers share the same underlying files and so certain things are not allowed here as they could introduce security holes.

  WordPress.com and wordpress.org (self-hosted) – the difference: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=3700&replies=1

  You cannot advertise here on wordpress.com. If you are self-hosted, you can do pretty much anything you want.

  If you are self-hosted, you need to inquire over at http://wordpress.org/support/ as we know nothing about the software you are using.
