   I have my blog hosted through bluehost. I'm trying to add "my favorite widget" from amazon. I am not an associate. We're not allowed in Illinois because of tax reasons. Amazon said you could still add this widget. I'm an author and wanted to post my books for sell next to my blog going down the sidebar. I am not sharp with code. Actually, I can't figure out where to paste the code for the widget. I created the widget and have the code, but can't find a place to paste it to. I don't know how to even see html on the blog dashboard. Any help for this computer flunky would be appreciated. My blog is here: http://www.pondpunkies.com/wordpress/ Thanks. Lisa

   Thank you. I read that post already. I can't figure out how to get to the directory to put that code in there. I know...pretty hopeless. Any ideas?

   Don't ask me how, but I got it! I did transfer some amazon shortcut into the plugins. I didn't think it worked, but when I went to my widgets it opened up all the amazon widgets in that file I placed somewhere. It's pretty sad when you try so many options that you don't know what you did to get the widget to appear. Anyway, thank you, Micah for your help.
