  I am working with a company called Shelter WishList and they created a scrolling widget that I’d like to put on my sidebar. Is that possible?

  Hi there,

  Unfortunately, that would not be possible on WordPress.com for security reasons. This can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress blogs. If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

  I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help.
