Help with creating Custom pages in a folder other than mybb root. - b.h. - 12-11-2017

I have been creating custom pages using the following code.... and it works great..... if I place it in the mybb root directory of my forum.

PHP Code:
<?php 

$templatelist = 'BookDB7';
define('IN_MYBB', 1); require "./global.php";

add_breadcrumb("BookDB7", "BookDB7.php"); 

eval("\$html = \"".$templates->get("BookDB7")."\";"); 

if(in_array($mybb->user['usergroup'], array('1','89','120','157')))
{
error("Access denied");
} 

output_page($html);

?>

However I am now needing to move the php page to a sub folder. and When I move it to a sub folder I get an error finding the .global.php file.
I have tried changing path, but I can't get it to work.

So lets say my mybb root directory is MYBBSUPPORT
and my new subfolder is MYBBSUPPORT/Book7

Can can someone help me fix my code so it will work?

Hi,

PHP Code:
require "../global.php"; 

Notice the two dots (goes up one folder in the directory path).

Is it a 3rd dot if I go down to another sub folder?

example:
MYBBSUPPORT/Book7/page1

PHP Code:
require ".../global.php"; 

cause it does not seem to work Sad
