   Hi all,

   I'm running a site on WP, and it won't let me access information from the global variable $current_user, after I run get_currentuserinfor().

   I have a php file in my theme (not a wordpress-specific file), and in that file, have the following:

   <?php
   define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
   require('../../../wp-blog-header.php');
   
   print_r ($current_user);
   ?>

   Then, in wp-blog-header, I have the following:

   <?php
   /**
    * Loads the WordPress environment and template.
    *
    * @package WordPress
    */
   
   if ( !isset($wp_did_header) ) {
   	$wp_did_header = true;
   	require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-load.php' );
   	wp();
     require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/template-loader.php' );
     global $current_user;
     get_currentuserinfo();
   }
   ?>

   When I try to access my php file in a browser, I get the following:
   WP_User Object ( [data] => [ID] => 0 [id] => 0 [caps] => Array ( ) [cap_key] => [roles] => Array ( ) [allcaps] => Array ( ) [first_name] => [last_name] => [filter] => )

   I would appreciate any help you all have!
