 * Hello,
   Can I use this plugin to add PHP code to a (classic) widget? And if yes,
   how?

 * Hi [@wendihihihi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wendihihihi/),
 * Using WPCode you can create a new PHP snippet and use it as a shortcode.
 * From the WPCode library inside the plugin install & activate the snippet “Enable
   Shortcode Execution in Text Widgets” – you can now add the shortcode you created
   for your snippet in a regular text widget.
 * More info to help with the above can be found in these 2 articles:
