How to use php code on a botton created with WordPress?

I wanted to know something.
Like if I have created page like this =>
https://www.globalfreelanceacademy.com/cpages-ebook/
with wordpress webpage creating tool like "instabuilder" and wanted to use this link =>
<a href = '<?php echo ("https://paystack.com/pay/".get_pname($_GET["pid"]));?>'>
Download And Enjoy!!!</a>
on the "Download And Enjoy!!!" button, since neither the webpage builder (instabuilder) nor wordpress support using php on page, how will I edit that from the wordpress database or is there any other place to edit it with?
Thanks!
You could use a plugin - for example Insert PHP Code Snippet and create a shortcode for your link and insert the shortcode in the post.
Here is a screenshot from the plugin where you can add your php code:
and how you can use these shortcodes:

do_shortcode with Instagram doesn't work - Wordpress

I'm trying to insert an embed post of Instagram via code using do_shortcode function. This is the shortcode example that Instagram gives on the embed documentation:
[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/bNd86MSFv6/ hidecaption=true width=320]
So I'm trying to call it like this:
echo do_shortcode('[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/bNd86MSFv6/ hidecaption=true width=320]');
The result I'm having is like I was using only the echo function, the shortcode comes as plain text on the browser.
The page that I'm editing is the single.php. And I did a test using a contact form 7 shortcode, it works normally with do_shortcode.
Am I missing something?
Have you created the code for [instagram]? Please post this code for us.
Put this in your functions.php file:
function my_awesome_shortcode( $atts, $content = null ) {
echo "This is my shortcode";
}
add_shortcode( 'awesome', 'my_awesome_shortcode' );
now put:
echo do_shortcode('[my_awesome_shortcode]');
into your single .php file. What is the result? if you get
This is my shortcode
Then it is working, you can use this template to build your instagram one.
Are you trying to insert this code in your pages/posts, or a template file?
For pages/posts, all you need is:
[instagram url="https://www.instagram.com/p/bNd86MSFv6/" hidecaption=true width=320]
For template files:
echo do_shortcode('[instagram url="https://www.instagram.com/p/bNd86MSFv6/" hidecaption=true width=320]')
Since you are not using a plugin, the shortcode has not been defined. You can either use a plugin ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-instagram-embed/ ) or define the shortcode using Mark's suggestion.

what is "do_shortcode" in wordpress and how it works?

I'm currently learning wordpress theme development and for better understanding I have downloaded couple of wordpress theme and seeing their code.
But a line of code I can't understand. here it is-->
<?php echo do_shortcode(sq_option( 'footer_text ' ' ')); ?>
maybe its for footer but how this works and how i can use this function when I will create my own.
do_shortcode is a function you have to use if you want to execute a shortcode inside a custom theme template page see more info on the function here: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/
Generally do_shortcode(); is use to get data from shortcode or its attribute to your PHP code or to filter any shortcode returning data. Shortcode can be provided by any plugin.
Not sure about it but in your theme's code sq_option("footer_text"); could be a function which is filtering some text from footer.
The code could be as:
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[contact-form-7 id="91" title="quote"]' ); ?>
Reference Link
do_shortcode () is usefull function-> for excute shortcode in template file

how to add php echo shortcode into wordpress post

I am trying to use php echo shortcode into Wordpress but I can't figure out how.
I want to use this shortcode:
php echo $pack['download_link'];
To add a shortcode in worpress:
add_shortcode('tag','myfunction' ); this add the shortcode in wordpress
function myfunction {
//your code to run
}
In pages or post use [myfunction]:
in templates echo do_shortcode('[myfunction]');
Your question has already been answered in a previous post
In short, PHP code cannot run within a WP post without an associated plugin that will process the PHP shortcode.

Wordpress Easy Contact Forms integration via php

I am trying to get Wordpress Easy Contact Forms plugin to my page by adding it to a page via text editor by using following: [easy_contact_forms fid=1] and then echoing the page content with php:
<?php
$post51 = get_post( 51);
echo $post51->post_content;
?>
However it just prints [easy_contact_forms fid=1] instead of actual form.
How do I get the form via php instead of the text content?
that is because $post51->post_content hasn't had the shortcodes "executed".
try:
$post51 = get_post( 51 );
echo do_shortcode($post51->post_content);
