    Hi,
    I want to declare/define functions that are used in more than one snippet, in a separate file, as that seems to be the only way (DRY).
    As a wordpress newbie, I need to know:
    – in which directory should I put the php file?
    – what would the include statement look like?
    Thank you!

    You could put the PHP file in the wp-content directory (like wp-content/common-snippet.php)

    And then include it in snippets like this:

    require_once WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/common-snippet.php';
