   Please note that is_user_logged_in is a pluggable function and you could get a fatal error if you call it too early.

   To solve this problem, you can wrap the login check within a function hooked to the init action:

   function example_function()
   {
   	if ( is_user_logged_in() ) 
   	{
   		// code
   	}
   }
   add_action('init', 'example_function');

   This function is more accurate if used at, or after, the ‘template_redirect’ Action. Before that, under unusual circumstances, it will give unexpected results.

   The most common case is for a Site Address (URL) without a “www.” when an http:// request is received with a “www.” specified.

   Background: between the ‘wp’ and ‘template_redirect’ Action, the Rewrite rules are applied for Pretty Permalinks. During this process, $_SERVER[‘SERVER_NAME’] is corrected in the common case listed above by removing “www.”
