  After setting up You Tube Subscribe Button in You Tube, I paste the code into a Text Widget, but it is not showing up in my blog widget area? The code I am trying to paste is from You Tube:

  <script src=”https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js”></script>

  <div class=”g-ytsubscribe” data-channelid=”UChEolsqnEriEHs5vCX66WTw” data-layout=”full” data-theme=”dark” data-count=”hidden”></div>

  Any ideas?

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

  Hello there!

  This type of code isn’t allowed on WordPress.com sites, unfortunately.

  My suggestion to you is to create your own widget that links back to your YouTube channel so folks can subscribe.

  Here’s some information about creating your personalized widget:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
