  All support docs are at https://support.wordpress.com/

  The only code that will work for Pinterest site verification of a wordpress.comblog is described here https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/#pinterest-site-verification and you must be logged into Pinterest when you are trying to verify?

  The Pinterest “Pin It” hover button will automatically appear on your WordPress.com blog if you have added Pinterest as a sharing button on your Settings > Sharing page and if you are also using the “Official buttons” for the style of the buttons (you can change it on that same settings page).

  We can hover over any image in a post and pin it if we are logged into Pinterest. If you have enabled the official buttons for sharing, a “Pin It” hover button will automatically appear for your images. https://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/ All we do after clicking the share button is choose one of the images displayed in the post to pin. It’s as easy as pie. ;)

  See how to install the Pinterest browser button:
  Google Chrome
  Mozilla Firefox
  Internet Explorer
  Safari
  Microsoft Edge

  Also, note that you can embed from Pinterest https://en.support.wordpress.com/embed-from-pinterest/
  And here’s the Sharing link https://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/

  This has nothing to do with WordPress versions. Your site is hosted by wordpress.COM and what I posted applies to it. WordPress.COM is on continual rollout so our version updates which are all done by Staff are running for at least a month before they are made available to wordpress.ORG users.

  P.S. Do not try to use any instructions for wordpress.ORG installs as they do not apply to nickvickerson.wordpress.com.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
