WordPress TEMPLATEPATH

2 comments

1. TEMPLATEPATH has been deprecated.

   Use the following to include files:

    // Load entire ThemeSmith framework
    include get_template_directory() . '/my-extra-functions.php';

2. It points to the template of your wordpress that is active.

   <?php echo TEMPLATEPATH; ?>
   

   This will give you the actual path.

   Incase you are using a child theme, then this points to the childtheme. This is really handy because…

   bloginfo('template_url')
   

   This doesn’t point to the child theme and creates problem for new developers using child theme.
