   What i need is to display the visitors user name.
   so if Tom logs in, at the top of the page it needs to say "Hey Tom,"

   I try this:

   <?php
   global $current_user;
   if ( isset($current_user) ) {
   echo $current_user->user_login;
   }
   ?>

   What i need to do before?
   this?

   <?php $current_user; ?>

   I have no sucess.

   And i try this function:

   function get_username() {
   global $current_user;
   if ( isset($current_user) )
   echo $current_user->user_login;
   }

   with:

   <?php $current_user; ?>

   And not happen :(

   Thanks for all suport.

   I resolved this problem using:

   in: user.php
   insert this:

   function get_username() {
   global $current_user;
   if ( isset($current_user) )
   echo $current_user->user_login;
   }

   in widgets.php
   insert this:

   Welcome <?php get_username() ?>

   this is all :D
   cya
