[wp-hackers] Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_insert_category() in ....

[Haluk Karamete]

Dion, for a moment I had gotten excited - until I got stopped by the login
box - which I cannot beat!

current code is as follows now;

<?php

error_reporting (E_ALL);

// I did not need to change the paths cause it works this way already!
cause echo bloginfo() still works!

$full_path_to_wp_header = "F:\inetpub\wwwroot\....\wp-load.php";
include ($full_path_to_wp_header);

$full_path_to_wp_admin = "F:\inetpub\wwwroot\...wp-admin\admin.php";

include ($full_path_to_wp_admin);

define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);

echo bloginfo();
//this STILL reports the blog title properly!

$cat_defaults = array(
  'cat_name' => 'Religion',
  'category_description' => '',
  'category_nicename' => '',
   'category_slug' => 'Religion',
  'category_parent' => '' );


//THIS LINE NOW FORCES A LOGIN
$my_cat_id = wp_insert_category( $cat_defaults );

/*
and I cannot pass the login screen!
every time I try to login, it redirects back to the login screen.
I can login with the same uid/password on a different browser so it's
definitely not a bad uid/pwd combination

I noticed that wp_insert_category forces the login url as follows

http://mysite.com/ic2/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmysite.com%2Fic2%2Fblueprint%2Fpages%2Ftest.php&reauth=1

I can login if I change the url to plain jane style
http://mysite.com/ic2/wp-login.php

I guess wp_insert_category not gonna allow me to insert it from a stand
alone page?
What's wrong here?
