How do you successfully insert a Symbaloo webmix into a post?

    Hi

    I'd like to insert a Symbaloo webmix (visual bookmarks) into my blog (Splendido theme).

    Symbaloo has a share feature which provides an embed code (long version). I have pasted the latter into the post (as demonstrated in the Symbaloo insert a webmix into your blog tutorial video); ensured the code wasn't mistakenly linked to anything else on the page etc. However, when I save the draft the code disappears and the webmix is not inserted.

    As an alternative I pasted the code in the visual post - same outcome.

    I seem to be doing everything correctly - so I'm stuck.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    The blog I need help with is atechnotebook.wordpress.com.

    If whatever you're trying to insert contains Javascript, it won't work:

    We need to see the code in order to see if there's a workaround. Post it here between backticks.

    Thanks very much to you both for responding.

    I never word have considered there was a problem with the code until you suggested it.

    I checked to via the suggested link page and was able to compare prohibited tags. Unfortunately there were 2 in mine - frame and embed - so that explains the rejection.l ).

    At least now I don't have to spend anymore time trying to troubleshoot the problem.

    Normally iframe and embed should be two alternative codes, not part of the same code. And there is a workaround for embed codes, so please do as raincoaster suggested.
