    Dear support team,
    I couldn’t find in any tutorial on how to to configure amazon widget. Except from external, by using plugin.
    Kindly help me to configure that widget.
    Below is HTML code of the widget :
    <script type=”text/javascript”><!–
    amazon_ad_tag = “httprekauscom-20”; amazon_ad_width = “728”; amazon_ad_height = “90”;//–></script>
    <script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/s/ads.js”></script>

    Best regards,
    Anto

    Hi Anto,

    WordPress.com doesn’t support Amazon widgets like that, because they include Javascript code that isn’t allowed here at WordPress.com.

    It also looks like that widget is for displaying ads — is that right? WordPress.com has an advertising program called WordAds, and advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed. You can find more details about that in our guides to Advertising and the Types of Blogs allowed at WordPress.com.

    If you’d like to display something other than ads from Amazon, please let me know and I’ll see if there’s a way you can do that here at WordPress.com. If you need to use that widget, you may be better off self-hosting your site with the free software from WordPress.org. You can learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org to see if that’s something you’re interested in.

    Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
