    I have a new wordpress blog : http://castele.wordpress.com and I would like to use the Yahoo Pingbox for the blog. The only problema is that the link that i get from the yahoo page does not help me, i go to widgets on my blog,, create a new one (text), insert the link, click save, but the widget does not appear…
    Can anyone help me?

    I have same problem. did you get the solution?

    if anyone know a solution please let me know.

    It doesn’t work on mine either. When I put in the HTML, it shows up as nothing.

    Does the code have the word “javascript” or “script” in it? if so, it will never work here but be stripped out because of security concerns.
