 * Hello,
 * I’m concerned if I used Insert Header & Footer on WordPress multisite that my
   clients would use on their subsites – particularly if they were able to insert
   malicious PHP scripts. Are PHP scripts disallowed and will never be allowed? 
   Just checking! 🙂
 * All the best,
 * MJ

 * [@onlyonemj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/onlyonemj/) An update was pushed
   recently. This plugin does not let you add / execute any PHP scripts. Thank you!

 * Thanks for getting back to me.
 * Could you confirm that you will never allow PHP code in future releases as well?
   Because if it was ever allowed in the future and we had hundreds of multisite
   subsites relying on this plugin for non-PHP scripts; we’d have no choice but 
   delete the plugin. This would result in a lot of broken sites/scripts followed
   by a huge support load.
