  Hi,
  I would like to insert a pinterest profile widget in my right column but when I paste the html code retrieved from Pinterest in the html custom widget <a data-pin-do="embedUser" data-pin-board-width="400" data-pin-scale-height="240" data-pin-scale-width="80" href="https://www.pinterest.com/mavietrepidantedemaman/"></a>, it shows me that it is impossible to save due to an invalid setting « There are 4 errors which must be fixed before you can save. »
  On the french wordpress.com, i was directed to this solution : .
  So, i paste the following link in the Flickr RSS URL widget. It works but it’s not my pins that are displayed.
  I also tried with this link It is the same problem.
  The french forum has no solution and directed me to you.
  Thank you in advance.

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

  Hi! You’re not able to add that code, but luckily you don’t need to. A Pinterest profile can be embedded by pasting a link to the profile in a post or page. For the sidebar, it looks like a text widget now allows this too.

  Just create a text widget and paste the URL of your profile into the space given. Make sure a blue underline isn’t created.

  The RSS feed would be https://www.pinterest.com/mavietrepidantedemaman/feed.rss/ for your whole profile and something like https://www.pinterest.com/mavietrepidantedemaman/ma-vie-de-femme.rss for a single board, if you choose to go that route!

  Hi,

  It doesn’ t work but maybe it’s because of the blue underline. How to delete it ?
  Thank you.

  Hi there, I took a look at your site and in that bottom Text Widget, the link is to your RSS feed, not to your profile page. Your Profile link should be this: https://www.pinterest.com/mavietrepidantedemaman/

  Replace that link with the above and see if that doesn’t work for you.

  Let us know if you have any problems or further questions.

  Can you type it in or paste it as plain text so it doesn’t create a link? This worked for me to load the widget embed feature.
  You can also completely delete the embed code in the same widget, as this isn’t needed.
