The controller does user auth and presents the header for the forum with user information.

Hello,
in a good usage of MVC programming you won't include a controller from a template(=view in MVC world), because that's the controller that includes templates.
To solve your problem, a solution will be to create a library that you auto-include and that deal with authentication, and to send your headers from another view of your controller.

require needs a path to a file to work (or a file in the include path). index.php/forum/header is a bit of URL. I coded something for this kind of problems, try a dip into CI.
