Topic:
When I try to embed, I get an error. What should I do?

First, check that your code is from an allowed website. You can find a full list here.

Next make sure that you're using the correct code--it should be "embed" or "iframe" code from the website. Please note that we don't support embedding individual images, so if you're embedding from Flickr or 4shared, make sure it's a slideshow or other content, not an individual piece of media. 

If you're seeing the error "You may not embed with a SCRIPT tag. Please use an IFRAME, OBJECT, or EMBED tag from a listed site." it's because that embed code utilizes Javascript which we don't support in embeds for security reasons.

In some cases, the embed source has "old" or alternate embed code that doesn't include script tags. For example, if you're embedding from Issuu.com, just click: "Looking for the old embed page? Add it to your site" on Issuu's embed page and use the "old" embed code they provide.
