# "PHP Code" widget missing

 * I’ve used your plugin on a second web site. The shortcode works fine but there’s
   no “PHP Code” widget showing up. Have deactivated all and re-installed core WP
   and then re-installed “Insert PHP” plugin (nothing else activated) but still 
   no widget. I can work around this by using the shortcode in a Text widget but
   I was wondering if you had encountered anything like this before.
 * BTW Many thanks for a great little plugin. Unbelievably handy and works like 
   a charm.

 * Insert PHP should be listed in Plugins > Installed Plugins but it won’t be listed
   in Appearance > Widgets.
 * Just use the plugin. No need to futz with appearance as there’s really nothing
   to adjust. Here’s lots of information:

 * But it’s fairly simple to use. Put [insert_php]…[/insert_php] into your post 
   or page (use the “Text” tab, not “Visual”) and replace … with your PHP code. 
   Example:
 *     ```
       [insert_php]
       echo "Hello World!";
       [/insert_php]
       ```
