 * Hi
    **could you please be more specific than in your FAQ **([https://help.xyzscripts.com/docs/insert-php-code-snippet/faq/can-i-embed-the-php-snippet-into-my-template-file/](https://help.xyzscripts.com/docs/insert-php-code-snippet/faq/can-i-embed-the-php-snippet-into-my-template-file/))**
   for the code to use on template page?**
 * Here is the only example you provide (_no idea what xyz-ips stand for…_)
    <?php
   echo do_shortcode( ‘[xyz-ips snippet=”Test”]’ ); ?>
 * **Examples of what i tried:**
    <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[wbcr_php_snippet id
   =”2135″]’ ); ?>
 *  <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[wbcr_php_snippet id=”2135″ title=”chicago”]’ ); ?
   >
 * Nothing works, it doesn’t produce an error, it just does nothing…
    thanks
 * Lola
