Quiz Plugin
-
Hi
I’m trying to add a shortstack embed code for WordPress to a post on the blog but it doesn’t seem to be working. Any thoughts on this? The code is:
[shortstack smart_url=’https://a.pgtb.me/8QLPZB’ responsive=’true’ autoscroll_p=’true’]I was going to create the quiz in Polldaddy but each answer has a value and I couldn’t see the functionality to do this on Polldaddy – like a personality quiz.
Any help would be much appreciated.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

http://kevinduttonblog.wordpress.com/ is a wordpress.COM hosted blog. It is not a wordpress.ORG software install and you cannot upload and install plugins on it. We have code restrictions as well https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/ and these are the only supported embed codes https://en.support.wordpress.com/?s=embeds
Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.
For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins (passwords), 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/
You can hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting and move your content into a WordPress.ORG install https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

Thank you, I did read that about COM and ORG but I thought as it was an iframe it wasn’t the plugin but I stand corrected.
I’ve never hosted anything before and am intimidated by the idea of it living on my computer somewhere and being at the mercy of hardware.
Thanks anyway for your time.

I’ve also put a lot of time into this and I read somewhere that you dont have the same templates on COM and ORG.

All iframe codes are stripped out of wordpress.COM hosted blogs for security reasons. The same is also true of JavaScript codes and advertising codes. The embed you refer to is not supported here.
