How to insert php inside php…

please re-post the code – and follow the forum guidelines https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Forum_Welcome#Posting_Code

I am using wp-favorites plugin in a classipress site

My aim is to incle the ad price in the page layout in the favorites page

I am trying to add some php code into the page template file, but not having much luck

Here is the existing code:

<?php
    echo "<div class='wpfp-span'>";
    if (!empty($user)):
        if (!wpfp_is_user_favlist_public($user)):
            echo "$user's Favorite Posts.";
        else:
            echo "$user's list is not public.";
        endif;
    endif;

    if ($wpfp_before):
        echo "<p>".$wpfp_before."</p>";
    endif;

    echo "<ul>";
    if ($favorite_post_ids):
        foreach ($favorite_post_ids as $post_id) {
            $p = get_post($post_id);
			global $post;
			echo "<li><h3>";
            echo "<a href='".get_permalink($post_id)."' title='". $p->post_title ."'>" . $p->post_title . "</a></h3>";

			$price = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'price' );
			echo $price;

			if(get_post_meta($item->post_id, 'cp_price', true));

            if ( get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'price', true ) ) cp_get_price_legacy( $post->ID ); else cp_get_price( $post->ID, 'cp_price' );

            echo "<a href='".get_permalink($post_id)."' title='". $p->post_title ."'>";
            if(get_post_meta($post_id, 'images', true)) cp_single_image_legacy($post_id, get_option('medium_size_w'), get_option('medium_size_h')); else cp_get_image($post_id, 'medium', 1);
            echo "</a>";
            echo substr(strip_tags($p->post_content), 0, 250)."...";
            echo "<br />";
            wpfp_remove_favorite_link($post_id);
            echo "</li>";
           }

    else:
        echo "<li>";
        echo $wpfp_options['favorites_empty'];
        echo "</li>";
    endif;
    echo "</ul>";
    wpfp_clear_list_link();
    echo "</div>";
    wpfp_cookie_warning();
?>

The php code I want to insert is:

<?php if ( get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'price', true ) ) cp_get_price( $post->ID, 'price' ); else cp_get_price( $post->ID, 'cp_price' ); ?>

How can I do this?

I did just try adding the code like this:

if ( get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'price', true ) ) cp_get_price( $post->ID, 'price' ); else cp_get_price( $post->ID, 'cp_price' );

but it did not work ie: it does not call up the price and display it in the page

Any help will be greatly appreciated – thank you
