Add PHP within a page

Hi all,

This is my first experience with CMS Made Simple, and I have to say I am finding it amazing - incredibly versatile and customisable, I couldn't find any other cms that would do what I wanted!

What I am looking for a way to do is to have some of my own php inside a page - for example a custom contact form my coding man has written, and a little php function for my newsletter signup box on all pages.

How do I do this in CMS Made Simple? I can't just put the PHP into the pages, so presumeably I need to put it somewhere else and then call it in?

Thanks in anticipation,

Jimbo

Thanks very much for those - I'm be a bit more thorough in my searching before posting a question next time! Hopefully that's the only problem I will encounter - everything else seems to be going reasonably smoothly...

It's ok Jimbo. Thnaks for using CMSMS!  :)
But, understandably, everyone gets tired of doing the same thing over and over, including answering questions.

I think maybe we should put a prominent link to the FAQ in a sticky topic in the forums: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/FAQ
Then questions that get asked more than once can be added to the FAQ making things nicer for everybody.  :)

Have a good day,

Elijah

Update: I found where the answer to this question was posted in the wiki (I thought I remembered it there, but that goes to show you that we need to work to make it easier to find): http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... hp.7D_Tags
