   How can I get current user id in plugin? I tried to use $current_user->ID but it doesn't work (works fine in template files). Any other way?

   Thanks

   global $current_user;
   echo $current_user->ID;

   If a variable is outside the scope of where you're trying to call it, then you need to globalise that variable..

   small fix:

   global $current_user;
   get_currentuserinfo();
   echo $current_user->ID;
