  Hi all

  I’m trying to embed a getty image into my wordpress blog

  https://gemmabentjournogirl.wordpress.com/?p=491&preview=true

  It just shows white space. I’ve looked around the forum and the only thing I can see that isn’t adding up is that when I embed the code into the text editor and save draft it doesn’t show as a shortcode. Also the code I’m getting from Getty Images doesn’t start with “<iframe…”.
  Any help would be great,
  Thanks
  Gem

  You cannot use Getty images as featured images. That’s what your issue is.
