# Hook Issue

 * Hi, I am new to PHP. I am trying to add a shortcode using GP hooks, but the issue
   is instead of the execution result of the shortcode, the shortcode itself is 
   displayed.
 * The PHP code I am using is
 * >  add_action( ‘generate_after_header_content’,’example_function_name’ );
   >  function
   > example_function_name() { if ( ! is_home() ) : ?> echo do_shortcode(“[adsforwp
   > id=”5306″]”); <?php endif; }
 * It prints “[adsforwp id=”5306″]”.
 * Please help me with this.
 * Thank You.

 * Hi there,
 * Try this:
 *     ```
       add_action( 'generate_after_header_content', 'example_function_name' );
       function example_function_name() {
           if ( ! is_home() ) {
               echo do_shortcode( '[adsforwp id="5306"]' );
           }
       }
       ```
