WordPress Guides, WordPress Plugins January 3, 20211 Comment

Some times coders or WordPressers need to run a PHP code in their site to but pure WordPress does not support running PHP codes.

But Insert PHP plugin will help you running any PHP code within your blog page or post simply by inserting your PHP code in the post or page body without modifying any file and does not need any coding skills. Just copy and paste PHP code!

Insert PHP WordPress Plugin

With Insert PHP plugin, WordPress will run any embedded PHP code quickly and without any problem. So WordPress simply can do pretty much anything PHP could do if it was embedded in the PHP templates.

Another good feature in Insert PHP plugin is the plugin code itself; the code is short, less than 30 lines, and all in one file for quick loading and running, so it will not slow your site loading.

Installing Insert PHP plugin

WordPress plugin installation is pretty simple and straightforward.

You can download the plugin zip file and upload it to WordPress or you can install free plugins from within WordPress dashboard.

Manually Install The Plugin

  1. Download Insert PHP plugin from WordPress.org’s Plugin page
  2. Go to WordPress Admin Panel → Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin [top left].
  3. Click “Browse” or “choose file” → select the Plugin archive which you have downloaded in step #1 → click “Install Now”.
  4. Wait for the file to be uploaded and then click “activate plugin”.

Automatic Installation

  1. Go to WordPress Admin Panel → Plugins → Add New.
  2. In the search area type “Insert PHP” and click Enter.
  3. In the search results choose the plugin called “Insert PHP” and click “Install Now”.
  4. Wait for the file to be downloaded to your host and then click “activate plugin”.

Using Insert PHP plugin

To use it, just paste the PHP code into WordPress visual editor and then replace the opening PHP tag <?php with [insert_php] and replace the closing ?> tag with [/insert_php] in your PHP code and you’re good to go.

    What a great plugin, Now I can add more scripts to my website and extend the functionality of my WordPress site without having to create a separate PHP files, I can now just create a new page and add the PHP code in it and it will be executed.
    Thanks!
