  Hi there,
  I’m trying to embed a pinterest board in my blog post. I’ve done this before and I’m sure I’ve simply pasted the link and once I’ve published the blog post my embedded board has appeared. However with my latest post it is just showing up as a hyperlink rather than an embedded pinterest board. I’ve tried going back into the post and ‘unlinking’ the pasted link, however this still doesn’t seem to work. Any suggestions how I can fix this please?

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

  Here are specific instructions:

  Please note that the boards won’t display if your blog is marked as Private.

  Make certain it’s a plain link your are pasting in as well, not a clickable link. Hope that helps!

  Hello!

  Just a side note, in this forum post staff member @gemmacevans mentioned that on 10/11/17 she had to create a bug report for this issue, meaning it may be a broader issue with the pinterest embedding, as it seems to be affecting other users, but it hasn’t been completely fixed yet.

  It might be the TLD… seems pinterest.com links work in cases where pinterest.co.uk do not.
