  Hello @grandprix2017
  You might be pasting the code in the Visual tab of the post/page editor. Please page the iframe embed code into the HTML tab instead.

  Here’s the official support guide to embed google maps:

  Hope this helps 🙂

  Thank you for your post, but I do paste the iframe in the HTML tab. I’ll have a look at the support link you gave me. Thanks again.

  Now it seems to be working with Google Map, but still not with OpenStreet Map. Thanks

  @grandprix2017 it’s because for google maps a special shortcode is generated when you copy and paste the iframe code into the HTML tab.

  And since Open Street Map does not have any supported shortcode currently on WordPress.COM – it does not work, because raw iframe codes are not allowed on WordPress.COM.
