Description

TEMPLATEPATH echoes null when used in a plugin (both plugins, and mu-plugins).

I'm not sure if this is by design, but it seems to be a shortcoming, as there comes a time when one needs to access something in the present Template folder.

We don't initialize the theme until well after plugins are loaded.

The solution is to wait to do whatever you are doing until a hook such as init. Ideally all plugin code should wait until then.
