I'm trying to introduce a simple php in a custom html module and it doesn't let me do it.Why?
This is the code:
<p> </p>
< ? php
echo " Hello World" . "\n";
?>

By default, Joomla doesn't allow you to use PHP in the editor. You will need to download a 3rd party extension to allow this feature. I would strongly recommend Sourcerer.
Once installed, simply wrap your code around {source} tags like so:
{source}
<?php
echo " Hello World" . "\n";
?>
{/source}

I have tryed to install Sourcerer and it says it's not compatible :(. So what can I do?. Regardszoit– zoit2015-01-25 15:43:14 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 15:43

@zoit - As of version 4.4.8, compatibility was removed for Joomla versions under 3.3.0, so please make sure you update your Joomla site to the latest version which is currently 3.3.6. There is no reason why you should ever be on an out of date version when using a STR. If for some reason you are unable to upgrade to Joomla 3.3.6, then you will need to download an older version of Sourcerer: nonumber.nl/extensions/sourcerer#changelogLodder– Lodder2015-01-25 15:50:44 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 15:50

If that's the case, then there should be no errors messages when trying to install Sourcerer.Lodder– Lodder2015-01-25 15:53:59 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 15:53

It says: This extension is not compatible with PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.15. Need PHP 5.3.13 or higher to install and use this extension.zoit– zoit2015-01-25 15:56:04 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 15:56
