# Adding script? / php?

 * I was hoping to use this plugin to insert the Disqus universal code:
 *     ```
       <div id="disqus_thread"></div>
       <script type="text/javascript">
       /* * * CONFIGURATION VARIABLES: EDIT BEFORE PASTING INTO YOUR WEBPAGE * * */
       var disqus_shortname = 'severaldirections'; // required: replace example with your forum shortname
   
       /* * * DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE * * */
       (function() {
       var dsq = document.createElement('script'); dsq.type = 'text/javascript'; dsq.async = true;
       dsq.src = '//' + disqus_shortname + '.disqus.com/embed.js';
       (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(dsq);
       })();
       </script>
       <noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view the <a href="http://disqus.com/?ref_noscript">comments powered by Disqus.</a></noscript>
       <a href="http://disqus.com" class="dsq-brlink">comments powered by <span class="logo-disqus">Disqus</span></a>
       ```
   
 * Putting this code between [insert_php] [/insert_php] doesn’t work. The code appears
   on the page. Is there something i can add, or I’m doing it wrong, or scripts 
   can’t be added?
 * Thanks for any pointers.

 * immanence, what you have is JavaScript and HTML. Insert PHP will accept only 
   PHP code.
 * The local syndication plugin might be used to pull both the JavaScript and HTML
   into the post or page.

 * If you prefer not to use that plugin and you can’t find another plugin that works
   for what you want to do, then I think the JavaScript part of your code will need
   to be pulled in from an external file. Just the JavaScript, not the noscript 
   tag or the other HTML code. This article has information:

 * Sorry Insert PHP won’t do the job for your code.
