1. The Insert PHP Code Snippet is not working properly.

Please check the wordpress version you are using. Make sure it meets the minimum version recommended by us. Make sure all files of the insert php code snippet plugin uploaded to the folder wp-content/plugins/

2. I have 2 PHP shortcodes placed adjacently, but only one of them works.

Please use a whitespace to separate 2 shortcodes.

Great product to solve problems

I use it to allow me to select between two different forms (short codes) based of the month of the date. Also allows me to pass data from the body of one page to another page to be displayed in the body of that page. Gets around WP not letting you create any part of a page except the body.

One other thing, it works for me on WP V7.0

Great Plugin

On-Demand Execution seems to throw a json error on line 0

By pavman on March 18, 2026

This is a great plugin when you don't have errors in php. Just don't re-use functions with the same name on the same page with menus / widgets that use the snippet or it will throw a broken site error.

Minus 1 star on the latest version as when I try to run a snippet on demand I get a json error (but am not using json), regardless of whether or not that code is already being used somewhere else successfully in snipet form.

What's really cool is you can use a post's custom fields to control variables in php snippets via:
$var = get_post_meta(#_of_post,'name_of_custom_field',true);

And then $someothervar = $$var to access the custom field's raw value to make custom variables a snap without having to write an admin interface in the dashboard for custom variables.

Insert PHP Code Snippet saved me

By jweichel on February 24, 2026

I also use a different php snippet program that suddenly had several of my snippets fail. I loaded this snippet program; and, using the exact same snippet code, it worked fine.

Simple and works well

By chazzo on February 10, 2026

I wrote some custom code to query an API and display a map of the results. This plugin is a simple and fuss-free way to add this to a specific web page using a shortcode. In due course we'll probably pay for the version that supports JS as well.

Fantastic
