 * Hello, None of the plugins I install are working? For example I’m trying to add
   this plugin on my contact page [contact-form 1 "Contact form 1"]. but when I 
   click on my contact page I just get the same code as what I pasted? Please help!!!

 * Did you add it in Visual or HTML view? Sounds odd but might work if added in 
   HTML view.
