WordPress normally not allowing you to add Php codes  to pages and posts, It's where shortcodes comes in. when a shortcode is encountered within post text then any custom php codes can be executed.

 Php function of the shortcode can be added to any plugin 

code or in your wordpress theme’s functions.php file so 

that those php codes within the function can be run.

 

Following is a example of how to add shortcode function  

in functions.php file.

 

function doctors_shortcode( $atts ) {

    //Add any kinds of php codes here   

    //following codes just display a hello text  

    $return_data="";

    $return_data.='<div id="primary" class="site-doc-main"> Hello ';

    $return_data.='</div>'; return $return_data;

}        

add_shortcode('DoctorShortcode', 'doctors_shortcode' );

 

Now Enter [DoctorShortcode] somewhere within a page or post to display the 

result of the doctors_shortcode() function.
