I’m creating a custom registration form for my website. Every tutorial has this call in the form
require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/registration.php');
I’ve read that registration.php has been depreciated quite a long time ago. Which file must be called upon, what is the proper way?
If you look at the source of the file you can see that it doesn’t do anything even if you were to include it except add a warning that “This file no longer needs to be included”. So those tutorials are out of date. You don’t need to include it.
The file you actually need to
include, if any file at all, depends on what you want to do exactly, and you don’t explain that in the question. A number of registration functions are inwp-login.phpwhich is very inconvenient because you canincludethat file to get at the functions without also getting a bunch ofechoed HTML as well.
