'is_user_logged_in is not working outside of wordpress directory

I just can't seem to get is_user_logged_in working outside of my wordpress directory.

I have wordpress installed in mydomain/news/

If I execute for example mydomain/test.htm and have within the html an iframe where the source is within mydomain/news then the following code in that iframe works:

<?php
session_start();
define( 'WP_USE_THEMES', false ); 
Include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/news/wp-load.php');
if ( is_user_logged_in() )
{
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$username=$current_user->user_login;
}
?>

But I need to execute the test from within the mydomain/test.htm and not from within an iframe that is within mydomain/news

When I try the following code directly in mydomain/test.htm it does not return the $username - is_user_logged_in() returns false.

<?php
session_start();
define( 'WP_USE_THEMES', false ); 
Include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/news/wp-load.php');
if ( is_user_logged_in() )
{
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$username=$current_user->user_login;
}
?>

Has anyone any idea why I am not getting is_user_logged_in() to return true? - I am definitely logged in when executing the test code.

You mentioned: mydomain/test.htm, therefore unless your server is setup to execute .htm through PHP then it'll not work, you'll need to change the file format to .php.

The solution that I found was to add the following code to wp-config.php:

define('ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH', '/wp/wp-admin');
define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');
define('COOKIEPATH', '');
define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '');

Note that this code shall be added in the middle of wp-config.php, i.e. before the line: /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */. And you shall replace "/wp/wp-admin" depending on where your wordpress installation is located (in this example the main path is at /wp, and there is a subfolder /wp/wp-admin).

Maybe it just needs an IN

And in Sql Server it's best to avoid using Oracle date literals.
Use YYYY-MM-DD instead.

SELECT t.PDATE, t.PlantNumber
FROM [productline].[dbo].[Headertable] t
WHERE t.PDATE >= '2021-12-30 00:00:00' 
  AND t.PDATE <  '2022-01-06 00:00:00'
  AND t.PlantNumber IN ('test rig a', 'test rig b') 
ORDER BY t.PDATE DESC, t.PlantNumber ASC
