Would it be possible to update the Wolfram|Alpha widget plugin?
-
I contacted Wolfram|Alpha when one of their widgets would not re-size correctly on my blog.
They responded as follows:
‘This is an issue with WordPress. They have not yet updated their version of the widget plugin. The newer version can handle the customizations, such as re-sizing the widgets. So this issue will be fixed once they have updated the widget plugin.’
Would it be possible to update the widget plugin?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

WordPress.com does not have a Wolfram|Alpha widget. Perhaps you’re thinking of a WordPress.org plugin? http://wordpress.org/search/wolfram
If so, please direct your request to the author of the plugin. Thanks!
You can read about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks kevkoeh.
I think Wolfram|Alpha were referring to your version of the widget plugin, not a widget that needs to be updated.
Perhaps WordPress.com needs to install the Wolfram|Alpha Widget Shortcode Plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wolframalpha-shortcode/?
I don’t really undestand all this technical stuff, so please pardon my ignorance!
Kind regards

No worries, guyandkatie. We don’t allow plugins on WordPress.com for security reasons. Plugins are a feature only available for self-hosted blogs provided through WordPress.org. You can find out more about this topic here: http://support.wordpress.com/plugins/
If you’re using that Wolfram|Alpha plugin, you’re using it on a self-hosted WordPress.org site, not a WordPress.com site. Since it’s not something we run or maintain here, I can’t really help you.
You might try contacting the author of the Wolfram|Alpha Widget Shortcode plugin through its support forum: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wolframalpha-shortcode
It hasn’t been updated in some time, however. Perhaps there is a newer Wolfram|Alpha plugin that would work better. So you could also try searching the WordPress.org plugin directory:
