PHP Include with a twist

Question

I have an include

include ('myfile.php');

Now, I am using wordpress and to get the template path I use:

<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>

My question is:

How can I use both together?

Like:

<?php

include('<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/myfile.php');

?>

Thanks

Answer 1

You can use the result of the function in the include, but not by echo:ing it. Just use it directly.

<?php
include(get_template_directory_uri() . '/myfile.php');

Answer 2

include(get_template_directory_uri() . "/myfile.php");

The include() function just takes a string parameter. Nothing special about it.
