 * Can someone please tell me what the function name is that prints out the path
   to the theme’s directory relative to index.php? i.e. wp-content/themes/theme 
   I tried get_template_directory() which is not what I want…
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Some examples:
 *     ```
       <?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?> returns the active template directory
   
       <?php bloginfo('url'); ?>  returns URL of web root
   
       <?php bloginfo('title'); ?> returns blog name
       ```
   
 * You’ll need a trailing slash, i.e.:
 * `<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/header.jpg`
