```
global $wp_filesystem;
include_once ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/file.php';
WP_Filesystem();

$content  = 'WordPress: Publish your passion';
$filepath = '/path/to/file/';

$success = $wp_filesystem->put_contents( $filepath . 'index.txt', $content, FS_CHMOD_FILE );

if ( $success ) {
	echo 'File created successfully.';
} else {
	echo 'Error creating file.';
}
```
- The order in which to implement is different. Make sure you include and initiate functions like this include_once ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/file.php'; WP_Filesystem(); global $wp_filesystem;
