  I’m trying to add a Like Box to the side of my blog. I’ve gone into my facebook page, copied the code but when I paste it into a text widget it changes it and doesn’t insert it.

  Code looks like so>

  <iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2Fedit%2F%3Fid%3D162092203842464%26sk%3Dbasic%23%21%2Fpages%2FGroundblog-Day%2F162092203842464&width=292&colorscheme=light&show_faces=true&stream=true&header=true&height=427″ scrolling=”no” frameborder=”0″ style=”border:none; overflow:hidden; width:292px; height:427px;” allowTransparency=”true”></iframe>

  when saved it becomes this>

  http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2Fedit%2F%3Fid%3D162092203842464%26sk%3Dbasic%23%21%2Fpages%2FGroundblog-Day%2F162092203842464&width=292&colorscheme=light&show_faces=true&stream=true&header=true&height=427

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Not if you copy-paste the code you gave above. But the thread I linked to gives some alternatives. Sometimes the workarounds available on WordPress.COM aren’t exactly identical.
