How to insert PHP code in a WordPress Post

Question

I need to insert into post a simple form handler, but WordPress' engine deleted my code after saving. how can I fix it?

Answer 1

Posts cannot contain PHP code, they get cleaned when you submit form. This is an obvious security precaution.

There are plugins that will enable you to do this.

For example: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/allow-php-in-posts-and-pages/

Answer 2

As an alternative to adding your PHP it may be easier to use a plugin like Contact Form 7 to create your form.
