  I have created an account at typekit.com. I have this code now that is supposed to connect my kit at typekit.com with my wordpress blog. I cannot find proper instructions for where to put this code from typekit into my wordpress blog. The instructions all say to put the code into the plugins directory. We don’t have a plugins directory at wordpress.com. Yet the Custom Upgrade at wordpress.com encourages us to open an account at typekit.com. Where do I put this code?
  <script src=”//use.typekit.net/ogf1bli.js”></script>
  <script>try{Typekit.load();}catch(e){}</script>.

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

  Frequently Asked Questions

  Can I connect a Typekit.com account to my WordPress.com blog?
  We no longer support connecting an outside Typekit.com account to a WordPress.com blog as of Nov 2013. We made this change so that we can focus on making one set of simple-to-use tools in Appearance → Customize → Fonts, which includes a selection of Typekit fonts, instead of maintaining two sets of separate tools. Blogs that currently have a Typekit.com account connected using the Advanced Mode for fonts may continue using that connection, but new Custom Design users no longer have the option to connect an outside font account.

  Then wordpress.com shouldn’t show a link to adobe. typekit.com in the fonts section of the customizer. I’ve been going in circles with this for too long for no good reason. That typekit link in the wordpress customizer is totally misleading and confusing.

  Apologies for the confusion! We display the Typekit logo in the Fonts panel in the customizer because Typekit is our fonts partner and powers the fonts we provide.

  There are around 50 fonts selected from Typekit for use on WordPress.com. Can I help you get setup with picking a font using the Appearance > Customize > Fonts section?

  I don’t need help with custom fonts, thank you. I could use some help however with css I would like to create full width posts with centered images on my walkinginthemounts.com blog posts such as is on this post:

  https://jhanajian2.wordpress.com/2015/02/18/paradise-belongs-to-the-heart-osho/

  The walkinginthemountains.com blog does not currently support full width posts with centered images. I can create 840px posts by inserting some html in individual posts, but I would like to have a 1050px width with centered images as a regular blog feature.

  Can you help me with this?

  I can absolutely help with that!

  Here is a start:

  .blog #primary, .attachment #primary, .single-post #primary, .page #primary, .search-no-results #primary, .archive #primary, .search-results #primary {
  	width: 100%;	
  }
  
  .entry-content .wide-content {
  	margin: auto;	
  }
  
  .entry-content, .entry-summary, .blog .entry-meta, .single-post .entry-meta {
  	max-width: 1050px;
  }
  
  .entry-thumbnail {
      text-align: center;
  }

  Make sure to spot check a few different types of pages to make sure everything looks as expected.
