  I found this: http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/posting-source-code/ but it doesn’t say WHERE we can use the short code. I tried it it in a post and a Text/HTML widget but neither worked with the following code. Am I doing something wrong? I’d like it to work in a widget. Here’s the code:

  [code language="javascript"]
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.trumba.com/scripts/spuds.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
  $Trumba.addSpud({
  webName: "scccalendar",
  spudType : "upcomingphoto" ,
  spudConfig : "Home Page" ,
  teaserBase : "http://www.shoreline.edu/calendars/default.aspx" });
  </script>

  Events calendar powered by Trumba</noscript>
  [/code]

  Here’s the blog: http://daag.shoreline.edu

  Thank you for any assistance.

  BTW, Trumba has lots of clients nationwide. How about setting up a tie-in for their calendar system? I can provide a point of contact :)

  Hi there,

  When I insert the code within a post in the Text Editor, the code displays correctly when published as demonstrated here:

  

  Here’s how the code is working in the sidebar Text widget:

  

  Can you try copying and pasting the code one more time? If it still doesn’t work, can you leave it on your sidebar so I can troubleshoot further?

  Regarding the Trumba integration, I’ll pass this along to our partnership team. If they’re interested, one of our team members will reach out!

  Hi Jeremy,

  Thanks for your response. I guess i misunderstood what would happen. I thought that

  [code language="javascript"].....[/code]

  would allow the specified code to actually run, right in that space.

  Your screenshots are revealing the code, itself, without any functionality. Actually, I had that result too.

  I was hoping I could run our calendar javascript in the sidebar widget…There’s just no way to do something like that, is there (on wordpress.com)?

  Ah – sorry for the misunderstanding! There currently is not a way to run that code. Javascript is a code that we block for security reasons as described here:

  Add Code to Your Site

  The “code” shortcode just displays the code in the correct formatting.

  Let me know if you need anything else!
