  I pasted the following code from SnapWidget into one of the “text” widgets for my blog, since I want to share specific pictures from my instagram account:

  <!– SnapWidget –>
  <iframe src=”http://snapwidget.com/sl/?h=Y29uY2llcnRlemF8aW58MjAwfDN8M3x8bm98NXxub25lfG9uU3RhcnR8eWVzfG5v&ve=151214″ title=”Instagram Widget” class=”snapwidget-widget” allowTransparency=”true” frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no” style=”border:none; overflow:hidden; width:205px; height:205px”></iframe>

  However, the widget doesn’t display properly whereas it does on my blogger site.

  Why does this happen? I want to have this properly displayed before posting entries on the site.

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  WordPress.com strips off iframe tag because iframe could compromise the security of WordPress.com blog network.

  iframe is not the only html element that is not allowed on WordPress.com. Code support document lists other html tags and the code that is not allowed for security reasons.
