haha!

Agreed, it’s easy to take for granted the number of things that WordPress provides. But that’s why these posts were called ‘PHP Helpers’ and not ‘WordPress Helpers’ :-)

Lies!

I actually personally often end up doing stuff like that for non-WordPress scripts of mine. I’ve been spoiled by all of WordPress’ helper functions, heh. :)

require( 'wp-load.php' );

function curl_http_request( $url, $req = 'GET', $arg = array( ) ) {
	$arg['method'] = $req;
	return wp_remote_request( $url, $arg );
}
