if facing function error. you need to include these two files.
include(ABSPATH . "wp-includes/pluggable.php"); include_once( ABSPATH . '/wp-admin/includes/image.php' );
In addition add a slash to the class instance if you are on a namespaced class
$http = new \WP_Http();
I've haven't work with Wordpress in quite a while, but if I'm not mistaken, if you are facing this issue its because you are running the script somewhere where the necessary wordpress functions are not being included. The solution shouldn't be to include the scripts manually, but to run it in the correct environment. Whish I could be of more help, but I'm rusty with Wordpress atm .
hand down thanks
