Two Custom HEADER.PHP

no worries, fixed it myself by duplicating HEADER.PHP, renaming it to something more relevant and using;

<?php include(“abc.php”); ?>

instead of;
<?php get_header; ?>

Bit clumsy, but does the job ??

why do you say its clumsy? I’m using this method as well, have you found a more..*ahem* elegant, way of accomplishing this?

get_header is nothing more then a fancy function to basically do the same…

Of course the get_header function does more then include a file, but at a basic level it is still an include….

Nothing clumsy about using include, though you could use require, or require_once if WordPress allows this (can’t see why not)…..

That way noone can call the file in question without a successful inclusion of the ‘required’ file…
