 * i want to create a page on the server example.com/test/try.php. This page I DONT
   WANT IT TO BE TEMPLATE because the contents of this page are totally different
   from the rest of the site.
 * My problem is i want the try.php to be able to use wordpress functions like is_user_logged_in(),
   get_user_meta();

 * Thank you but it’s not what i wanted.
 * Found the solution. i just needed
 * global $wpdb;
    include ‘/path_to_blog/wp-blog-header.php’;
 * on your of my php file. Funny that you gave a link to template creation when 
   i said i dont want to create a template.

 * i find funny that you did not understood that using a page/custom template technique
   is exactly what you are looking for and you what should be using.
 * on other side – maybe you are looking for totally custom front-end engine, and
   yes – loading wp-blog-header.php is the way to go.
 * but first – try to refine what is your object and do you understand the differences
   between proposed solutions.

 * Nope the page template solution did not work i even tried [http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags](http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags)
   Conditional Tags.
 * i think the nature of my request was too custom hence i capitalized the words‘
   I DONT WANT IT TO BE TEMPLATE’ in my initial requests because i had already gone
   through the route.
 * I found out that the way the page template constructed a page it caused some 
   issues with scripts and css. I even tried to deregister scripts for the try.php
   file but it didnt work out.
 * In short the solution i found is convenient and solves all my problems.
