I've tried this - but it still doesn't work with the postbit template. Why could that be?

I would not do any code edits, but just put this code into a plugin, probably using the 'global_start' hook location.

To anyone who's had the same type of problem, I've found a different solution. I am ignorant as to why this worked and the other way didn't, but here it is:

Instead of referencing $mycontent directly, I called it through $GLOBALS, which is a superglobal. It is an array of all global-scope variables, the keys of which are the variables' names. Therefore, I was able to call $mycontent by writing $GLOBALS[mycontent].

This page helped me find this solution.
