  I made a twitter widget code on twitter’s website so that the widget searches for a hashtag. I copied the code and put it into a text widget. But, when I refreshed my blog it just showed a bunch of code not the Twitter widget. What do I do?

  Howdy,

  It sounds like that code isn’t allowed here at WordPress.com:

  If you want to integrate with Twitter, you might want to check out this guide:
