  Where I placed the Amazon Widgets it simple says “Amazon Widget” with a link to the products, rather than the products showing on the site where the widget has been placed. Why is this and how can it be rectified?

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

  Amazon Widgets are banned at WordPress.com. All affiliate widgets are banned here. You can ONLY use affiliate links in the body of a post, and only text links.

  Raincoaster-Ok, I used the text widget. Would it be different if I used my own URL and I was a premium subscriber?
