How to store variable in one php file and access in other php file

Guys

I want to create configure.php file where I can set different variables related to my new small module. I wish I store here my site's variable name and access this variable in all other files so if I change my site name in configure.php it may change at all places.

I am doing this in configure.php

$sitename = "GlobalCashSite";

And then I added configure.php in all php pages. For example at signup.php I am doing following:

require "config.inc.php";
print $sitename;

But script is not printing $sitename. Please help me what I am missing in this. My global_variable is off and I want to keep this off.

If you are storing variables in config.php and require config.inc.php there is a biggggg problem.
Make sure you include the correct filename, then only it would work.

 

Hi buddy

That is not a problem, my correct file name is config.inc.php and I am using it correctly in files. Thanks for pointing it.

As long as

$sitename = "GlobalCashSite"; is in the file config.inc.php try.

<?php include "config.inc.php";?>

And echo instead.

<?php echo $sitename;?> where you need it on your pages

 

use Session Variable for best use

 

I recommend use of define() for site-wide use of constants like sitename .

 

u can use session variable .....
enter a value in session variable and get any page

 

define is definitely the way to go
