How to Run PHP Code in WordPress
February 8th, 2013 by admin
www.sjcwebdesign.com – Hello everyone, Larry Snow here with another quick tutorial on how to run PHP Code in a WordPress Page or Post. I was presented with a challenge to retrieve data residing on a MySQL database and have it displayed on our client’s page. I decided to use PHP code since WordPress is built upon PHP but surprisingly without a plugin WordPress ignores the PHP code. TWITTER @SJCWebDesignLLC Facebook: on.fb.me LINK TO CODE: bit.ly

Hi Philip – got your other post, deleted it accidentally 🙁 I see what you are asking now – I don’t think there is a search plugin to search the database, I’d try using the text plugin to set up a search box that when submitted would go to a page that has the sql query code to search the database and show the results. If you can’t? do it as a text plugin, set up a separate page for the search box.

I believe it is the standard search widget that comes with WordPress.? It can search a page and post.

Hi Martin thanks for the kinds words. Not sure if I can answer your questions, but feel free to post and if I can answer them I will. I’d suggest though, and you may have already done this, to go? to WordPress(dot)org forums for answers to your questions.
