  Hey all,

  I’m trying to add a banner from my Society6 store to my trashdesign.co.nz blog on WordPress.
  I have the code I need to copy to my blog, but not sure exactly where to enter this.

  Can anyone help me out with this?

  I’m just using the online wordpress blog.

  Cheers

  What is the code you want to use? I’m unfamiliar with Society6.

  To post code here in these forums, paste it between backticks:
  backtick code backtick

  (backtick looks like this: ` and on U.S. keyboards is the lowercase of the tilde ~ next to the key for 1 and !)

  note that we cannot use some code here on wp.com so you might want to read this support document:

  Hey there,

  the code looks just like this…

  <script type=”text/javascript”><!–
  s6_user = “trashdesign”;
  s6_format = “300×250”;
  //–></script>
  <script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://society6.com/js/show_banner.js”>
  </script>

  and the link from Society6 is at

  http://society6.com/account/banner

  Do you think this will work with those code things?

  Thanks for your help.

  The link I gave you says that javascript is forbidden code.

  Add Code to Your Site

  JavaScript

  Users are not allowed to post JavaScript on WordPress.com blogs. JavaScript can be used for malicious purposes. As an example, JavaScript has taken sites such as MySpace.com and LiveJournal offline in the past. The security of all WordPress.com blogs is a top priority for us, and until we can guarantee scripting languages will not be harmful, they will not be permitted.

  JavaScript from trusted partners, such as YouTube and Google Video, is converted into a WordPress shortcode when a post is saved.

  Please note that the backticks are available in the forums in order to paste readable code here; the bacticks do not have anything to do with making a forbidden code function on your blog.

  You could start a new thread in the “Ideas” forum to let staff know why this code is important to be added to our platform. Explain what function it would provide to make wordpress a better blogging platform.
