I'm trying to add some of the data from the user_info_panel.php file to the theme.php file for my custom theme.
When I attempt to achieve this and call:
Nothing appears. I assume I need to include maincore but I don't know how to include it from theme.php in my theme directory as I don't know the directory?

The maincore is already included otherwise there would be no iMEMBER constant.
I tested if i add a statement echo $userdata['user_name']; it displays my logon name.
Can you put the statement in an panel or something for testing?

It works in a panel, but I don't want it in a panel I want to be in the header so it's included on every page. Is there somewhere else I could put the code that isn't in the theme.php file?
