Using links from my Amazon Associate account, I find that when I try to post the "Text and Image (Enhanced Display)" link to a product on Amazon, it does not work! Wordpress wipes-out the new code. A couple of times, I previewed it, then went to edit the other text, but it was gone! This keeps happening. Any solution out there? Surely Wordpress -- being the industry standard for blogging -- can handle an <iframe> tag, right? Boy, I'd sure like that to work!

If you're adding iframe markup, are you using the HTML tab?

I've not had any problems when adding markup for an an Amazon shop iframe. Could one of your plugins be causing a problem? It might be worth deactivating the lot and see if that has any effect.

There may be Amazon-based plugins but be careful - not all plugins are currently compatible with WP 2.8, so check their official compatibility level first. I've never used a plugin though. Just pasted in the iframe code by hand.

Posted 4 months ago #Ah, I've figured out the issue. I had been toggeling from the HTML tab to the Visual tab. I thought that was just a tab choice for viewing, (like a "reveal code" button) but apparently, when you click the Visual tab, all HTML code is removed.

Posted 4 months ago #Hi,
I still have the same problem in wordpress, even in 2.8.1. When I put an iframe code in the HTML tab and I switch to the visual tab it deletes all code. Not very useful for my non-html users. Is there a solution?
I feel this issue isn't solved. I have a wordpress.org site, no wordpress.com site.Tnx in advance,
