Using PHP in WordPress

I just wanted to note the error that I got:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /home/afalik/globalcitizenyear.org/wp-content/themes/deMar/DoDirectPaymentReceipt.php on line 83

The get_header() function is the first problem but I can’t think why that would be undefined?

It seems that you are calling the .php page directly. To use WordPress functions you have to include “wp_load.php” file exists in the WordPress root directory.

The better option is use custom page template (https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Pages#Creating_Your_Own_Page_Templates)

Thanks!

Hi there, every one.
I use a plug-in called PHP Exec.

In every page I want to include php code, I write this:
<phpcode>
<?php
(…)
?>
</phpcode>

And it works… ??

Best regards.

Ooops…

Sorry about that.

The link to the plugin’s web:

Best regads.

php exec can lead to security issues tho.

Hi keenanwl,

The best way to do this is to create page templates based on your wordpress theme. Customize the page template however you want with your custom PHP code.

Now create a page in wordpress using that page template. That should do the trick.

If you need more info, do ask.

Here are a few links:

Page templates is the way to go … and very easy to implement … plus they’re re-usable. I agree completely with sterex.

@agedcareaid:

Your video URL is malformed. Instead of this:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=http%3A

Use this link:

Thank you Luke

It’s still not working ??

i dont knw where I am going wrong….

Thanks tons

Try using this for the link beneath the video:

And, use this code for the iframe (paste it as HTML):

<iframe title=”YouTube video player” width=”640″ height=”390″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/Nvb4fxRzQw4&#8243; frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

You currently have extraneous data in your URLs.

As other said, page templates is the way to go

You can use this….

<?php
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false);
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>

for header

<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/header.php’); ?>

for sidebar

<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/sidebar.php’); ?>

for footer

<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/footer.php’); ?>

Hi there all,

i am looking for some function using which the default user registeration pattern can be changed, i.e. when new user try to create a user by default wordpress ask a username and email. and sends the password to the user given email.

i need to have function to enter their password manually rather then randomly generated password

My question how to sort this out? Does WordPress have any quick edit for this rather than changing wp-login.php to get this functionality.

Shall be very thankful.
I had posted this question in “How to and troubleshoot” but no buddy answered it.
