  I have a broken php script that I would like to take the inputted username and password and check that to the users in my wordpress site. If username and password match, echo ‘success’;
  <?php
  require_once(‘../store.rbxtv.com/wordpress/wp-includes/user.php’);
  require_once(‘dbConnect.php’);
  if($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_METHOD’]==’POST’){
  //Getting values
  $username = ”;
  $password = ”;
  $user = null;
  $result = wp_authenticate_username_password($user, $username, $password);
  if (is_wp_error($result)) {
  echo ‘not authenticated’;
  } else {
  echo ‘authenticated’;
  }
  mysqli_close($con);
  }
