  Hi – I cannot add Formspring to a text widget as iframe is apparently not allowed by WordPress. I have however seen Formspring on other WordPress blogs, so there must be some way of doing it.

  This is the code copied and pasted from Formspring website: <iframe src=”http://www.formspring.me/widget/view/AngelaAmour?&size=medium&bgcolor=%23fff&fgcolor=%23333″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no” width=”180″ height=”275″ style=”border:none;”>http://www.formspring.me/AngelaAmour</iframe>

  Many thanks.

  Unfortunately, we cannot allow that type of code on WordPress.com for security reasons.

  Hello – I have seen Formspring on other WordPress blogs though, so there must be a way of doing it. Can the code be altered?

  Hello, can somebody answer me please? My blog is built on WordPress.com, does it need to be on WordPress.org to accept that code?

  Yes, there are no restrictions to the code that you can use on a self-hosted WordPress.org blog.
