  Dear support

  I have a problem adding a pin button on each one of my photos, how do I do that? I went to a conference this weekend and I talked to pinterest who said that many people contacted them with the same problem. My question how can I add a pin button to all my photos, is it possible to install it, so it happens automatically when I upload a photo to my blog?

  Thanks

  Danielle

  Hello there,
  You can use any widget that has pure HTML but you cannot use any widgets that contain restricted codes like iframes or JavaScript widgets. In the case of Pinterest, you cannot use the Pin-it Javascript code on a WordPress.com blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  But you can put the code for the Pinterest follow button in a text widget.
  1. Go to this site, choose which one of the red Follow Me images you want, and copy the code for it. http://pinterest.com/about/goodies/

  2. Then, go to your widgets > Appearance > Widgets and select a text widget.http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/

  3. Paste the Pinterest follow button code into the text widget, “save” the widget, “close” the widget and place it where you want it to display in your sidebar.

  4. Please see here for enabling sharing buttons including Pinterest on your blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/ Note that when this sharing button is clicked the visitor has the option of selecting which image to pin.
