  I would like to embed an html code from mailchimp to collect email addresses for a newsletter but the html doesn’t embed correctly. What am I doing wrong?

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

  Hi, Lucy

  WordPress.com removes some of the code of MailChimp embed form, due to security reasons.

  Instead, you can add a link to your sidebar that points to your signup forum hosted with MailChimp.

  There’s also an option that includes putting an image in the sidebar that looks like a signup form, but instead links to your forum.
