 * I want to add some custom PHP code so that whenever the user publish a post, 
   WordPress will write the post title to a text file on the webserver. I know how
   to write file in PHP. I just don’t know where to insert this PHP code into the
   WordPress framework.
 * If you point me to reference or tutorial, I can figure it from there.

 * I found it [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_action).
 * It goes something like …
    `add_action('publish_post', 'yourfunction');`
