   Hi there.

   How do I create my add_menu_page and add_submenu_page's if there's functions are located in a different file? I have tried to replace __FILE__ with path to the files, like this 'myplugindir/myadminpage.php', but I can't get it to work.

   I have really struggled with this so I hope someone has the answer.
   Thanks

   You need to enter the file name of the core WordPress file you want to add, for examples (for v2.6):
   <dl>
   <dt>Under 'Write'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('post-new.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Manage'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('edit.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Design'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('themes.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Comments'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('edit-comments.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Settings'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('options-general.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Plugins'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('plugins.php',...)</dd>
   <dt>Under 'Users'</dl>
   <dd>add_submenu_page('users.php',...)</dd>
   </dl>
   Note that I didn't show all the parameters for the add_submenu_page() for those who struggle with PHP programming; the '...' are just placeholders. To learn about the full list of parameters go to http://codex.wordpress.org/Adding_Administration_Menus#Sub-Menus.

   Opps, Wordpress.org didn't like my use of a description list. Here is a better formatted version of my list:

   1. <b>For 'Write'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('post-new.php',...)
   2. <b>For 'Manage'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('edit.php',...)
   3. <b>For 'Design'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('themes.php',...)
   4. <b>For 'Comments'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('edit-comments.php',...)
   5. <b>For 'Settings'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('options-general.php',...)
   6. <b>For 'Plugins'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('plugins.php',...)
   7. <b>For 'Users'</b> &mdash add_submenu_page('users.php',...)

   Sigh. Once again:

   1. For 'Write': add_submenu_page('post-new.php',...)
   2. For 'Manage': add_submenu_page('edit.php',...)
   3. For 'Design': add_submenu_page('themes.php',...)
   4. For 'Comments': add_submenu_page('edit-comments.php',...)
   5. For 'Settings': add_submenu_page('options-general.php',...)
   6. For 'Plugins': add_submenu_page('plugins.php',...)
   7. For 'Users': add_submenu_page('users.php',...)
