  I can’t get the indiefgogo widget to work in my primary widget area. Your forum help doesn’t have any credible instructions as to how to do this simple thing. What do I do?

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

  You paste the code here, between code tags, so we can analyze it.

  If it is an affiliate widget, you are out of luck; those are banned here.

  It’s amazing that the wordpress website doesn’t have a simple answer for this question. It turns out that the default indiegogo links are in the form of iframes, which “are not allowed on WordPress for security reasons”. What you need to do (and what I did sucessfully just now) is to “create [my] own widget.” Look up that help topic here at wordpress and there is a simple step-by-step that shows you how to do this in a few minutes. Thanks for quickly responding to my call for help, raincoaster!
