To recap, the 4 predominant approaches to add PHP in WordPress are:
Turning your PHP into shortcodes with the Insert PHP Code Snippet plugin.
Adding PHP snippets to your web page with the Code Snippets plugin.
Customizing your toddler theme the use of the Theme Editor.
Using an FTP purchaser to edit WordPress archives manually.
PHP is already installed on most WordPress hosting environments. However, if you need to install PHP or update its version, you can follow these steps:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
If you need to update PHP, check with your web host or server administrator to ensure that the new version is compatible with your WordPress installation and any plugins or themes you are using.
Once you have verified compatibility, you can update PHP using your web host's control panel or by contacting your server administrator.
If you want to add custom PHP code to your WordPress site, you can use one of the methods you mentioned in your question, such as the Insert PHP Code Snippet plugin or the Code Snippets plugin. Simply install the plugin, create a new snippet, and add your PHP code. Be sure to test your code thoroughly before deploying it to a live site.
If you need to customize your WordPress theme using PHP, you can use the Theme Editor or edit the theme files directly using an FTP client. However, be cautious when modifying theme files, as changes you make may be overwritten when the theme is updated. It is recommended to create a child theme before making any modifications to ensure that your changes are not lost.

- Check the current version of PHP that is installed on your server. You can do this by creating a new PHP file with the following code:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
- Save this file with a .php extension and upload it to your web server. Access the file through a web browser, and you should see a page with information about your PHP installation, including the version number.
