 * I found this Support article for inserting a Google Map:
 * [http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-maps/#comment-114341](http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-maps/#comment-114341)
 * After following the steps, no short code is generated from inserting the iframe
   code into the Visual editor:
 * [http://www.jenniejane.com/google-map/](http://www.jenniejane.com/google-map/)
 * I can insert the code in the HTML editor and that works, until you click the 
   Visual tab. Then the code gets completely removed.
 * I tried created the short code myself, and that doesn’t display anything either:

 * Is there a step I’m missing here?
