  • Unless I’m mistaken, get_current_screen is only intended for use when showing an administration screen. Its function is to return the current screen’s hook suffix. If you want to explain what you’re trying to do, I (or someone) might be able to provide a good alternative.

    Hi Big Bagel

    I’m resolved

    My last test code works fine

    Thank you.

    add_action('admin_menu', 'my_theme_menu');
function my_theme_menu() {
	$theme_page= add_theme_page('My Theme Options','test','edit_theme_options','myslug','my_Theme_options');
	if ( $theme_page ){	add_action( 'load-' . $theme_page, 'my_help_tabs_to_theme_page' );}
}
function my_theme_options() {
	echo '<div class="wrap"><p>This is Theme Options page</p></div>';
}
function my_help_tabs_to_theme_page() {
	$screen = get_current_screen();
	$screen -> add_help_tab(array('id' => 'additional-plugin-help','title' => 'Special Instructions','content' => '<p>This is the content for the tab.</p>'));
}

    Hi, nobita

    Enter in file functions.php and try to copy this:

    function get_current_screen() {
    global $current_screen;

    if ( ! isset( $current_screen ) )
    return null;

    return $current_screen;
    }

    Bests
