Use wordpress functions in another PHP file

1 Views

I have created in my theme folder a PHP file named gallery.php. In this file I want to use WP_Query function, but I can’t do this because it shows error.

Is possible to do this?

  1. You must put your gallery.php in the same theme folder, where the theme’s functions.php resides. Then add a single line in functions.php:

    get_template_part('gallery','');

    It’ll include the gallery.php file into functions.php and gallery.php will behave like functions.php.

    So, you have to keep in mind that, functions.php file is a file for WordPress and PHP functions. So anything out-of-format without proper formatting may occur error into the whole site – and functions.php is a core file of any theme.

    I don’t think it’s impossible using WP_Query() inside a functions.php – but you have to format and place it properly.
