 * I use the datafeedr plugin for a site of mine and also use exec php so I can 
   insert PHP into pages and posts. Everything works fine until I try to insert 
   PHP into an HTML module within Datafeedr.
 * I have disabled the visual editor, but when I try to post this code:
 *     ```
       <?php
       $keyword = the_title("", "", false);
       $text .= '[phpbay]' . $keyword . ', "20", "", ""[/phpbay]';
       echo phpBayPro($text);
       ?>
       ```
   
 * It ends up looking like this after I save it.
 *     ```
       <p><?php<br />
       $keyword = the_title("", "", false);<br />
       $text .= '[phpbay]' . $keyword . ', "20", "", ""[/phpbay]';<br />
       echo phpBayPro($text);<br />
       ?></p>
       ```
   
 * At first I figured it was because it is with a WYSIWYG, but I have made sure 
   that I was in CODE mode rather than VISUAL and have now just disabled the visual
   editor altogether.
 * Any ideas of what I should try?

 * Write it in one line. If it gets too complicated use require() or include(). 
   There were also hacks for turning off the auto-linebreak feature in WordPress,
   but that’s definitely not a good idea.

 * Did anyone get the exec-php plugin working in the pages section of datafeedr?
   I have made sure that I do not have any other formatting in the content. It seems
   that the exec-php plugin just doesn’t execute on the datafeedr content…
 * Any help greatly appreciated.
