  I am trying to paste a widget code in the text widget from Amazon and when I press save, wordpress changes the code and on my screen it just says “Amazon Widget”. What am I doing wrong??

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

  Hi there,

  I’m sorry, but that embed code will not work because we do not allow certain tags on WordPress.com for security reasons, including JavaScript, Flash, iframe, form, and input tags. These restrictions are in place to prevent any disruptions in service due to potentially malicious code.

  You can read more about this here:

  Best,
