Hi. To expand on my issue, so far, I have tried adding php code to the top of the index.php file ( the home page within Wordpress.) From the root folder, this is located at: news/wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen/index.php. As soon as the code is added the page does not load. The index file pulls in the WP templates that build the page so I even tried using the header template to hold the php code but still no joy.
