  I’m trying to embed a Shelfari widget, but instead of getting the visual widget, I’m only getting the text widget, even though I’ve copied the code for the visual widget.

  Hi there,
  The Shelfari widget can’t be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. As this is a multiuser blogging platform the code will be stripped out by the software to preserve security. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
  There is a GoodReads widget you may be interested in using http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/goodreads-widget/
