do like this,
in the file where you need to call the function
require_once("file_having_function_that_you_need_to_call.php");
function_name($arguments); // this function is defined in 'file_having_function_that_you_need_to_call.php' file

First you need to include that file either using
require_once or require
or
include_once or include
if the function is not in class, you will call directly.
require("file.php");
echo getUserName("1")
otherwise you have to first create object and than call method
require("file.php");
$obj = new User();
echo $obj->getUserName("1");

Use include()
, require()
, etc. on the other PHP file, then just put the function name followed by its arguments in parentheses.
