Hi guys,

Say I dont want to touch any bp files, but instead I wanted to create my own files like say.. xlordt-menu.php
how do I pass global variables and functions to this file?

Thanx.

Typically, you start by creating a plugin and go from there. Have you written plugins for WordPress before? Also, what are you trying to do?

No I haven’t create a plugin for WP yet, but I am looking in to it. What I am trying to do is send JQuery request to this file
a long side that I need to pull the current users information on the script and not passing it via JQuery. Also this script will be pulling data out of the Database.

Thanx Paul! anyway for me to resolve this with out need to use include ()/require () functiosn?

Figure out the basics of plugins first, https://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_a_Plugin, and then try AJAX https://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX_in_Plugins
