 * Hello
 * I am having a trouble about php code in my site:
 * When I use a code in my page, e.g <?php the_tags etc, a blank space is always
   added between < and ?, and the code does not works. I’ve tried to use several
   plugins for php codes, but nothing helps me. Someone know what is adding this
   blank space on my code? Someone can help me?
 * Please…
 * Thanks in advance.

 * You can’t insert php directly into a post or page. Php can only be added to .
   php files and templates.

 * If you need to use PHP in your posts consider custom page templates or a plugin.
