  Hello,
  I’m trying to add a sign up block for my subscribers to get mails. for this i have made a proper embed form on mailerlite. as i am a part of wordpress free, i cannot access plugins. i tried editing the page code but when i publish my page, the part of the code i added comes as a long paragraph text.

  then i tried making a custom html block and adding the html code there. in html preview of the block, it worked fine. but when i went to page preview, again it came as a text file. even after publishing the page , it stayed a text file only.

  Kindly help

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

  To use a Mailerlite sign up form on a free site, you need to use the Mailerlite widget as shown here:

  https://wordpress.com/support/widgets/mailerlite/

  If you follow those steps, that will add the subscriber pop up on your site.

  I hope that helps!

  Hi there,

  To be able to embed a MailerLite form you’ll need to upgrade to the Business plan. The code needed for that embed is not allowed on the Free, Personal, and Premium plans. You can read more here:
