 * Hi, I have external file and I am loading wordpress functions with:
 * `require_once( 'wp-load.php' );`
 * But action “plugins_loaded” is not working (so the plugins are not loaded). How
   to make plugins loaded from external file ?
 * Thanks!

 * I would use FTP and add all the plugins at once, FileZilla does the job for me
