child theme, not working javascipt

You mentioned you were using a child theme; what parent theme are you using? Can you post a link to a page that shows the issue? If you use Firebug or some other web inspecting tool, do you see any JavaScript errors? Are you using jQuery?

I am creating the child theme based on Stanleywp theme.

I have used the chrome dev tools and no error is showing up.

Here is the function in my functions.php file that I use to call the javascript.

function theme_js() {

	wp_enqueue_script( 'theme_js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/placeloc.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0', true );

	wp_enqueue_script( 'gmap', '//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=keyremovedY&libraries=places&callback=initMap', array ('jquery'), '1.0', true );
}

add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_js');
add_action('wp_enqueue_script', 'gmap');

?>

Basically I am trying to get a google places autocomplete hotel search javascript to work in wordpress.

I created a reply, I guess it is being moderated?? If it does not show up, I will create a new reply with the info in it.

But no errors in chrome dev toolbox, and yes I am using jquery.

The one I posted had a link in it, maybe that is causing the moderation?

It’s hard to say exactly what might have gotten you flagged, but I went ahead and released your post from the spam queue and removed the excessive HTML, as well. Can you post a link to a page that shows the issue, and not the HTML itself?

Yes, I will setup a VM server tonight on a cloud service. Currently the server that the page cannot be accessed from online.

I think I am just going to have a custom plugin / theme created. I have been trying to get this working on and off for over 2 months.

Thanks for your help.

I am still trying to figure out how to get this to work.

I have a test server setup at https://104.236.207.225/

I am getting the following error.

message
:
“initMap is not a function”
name
:
“InvalidValueError”
stack
:
“Error?

There is more information on the files and things tried at.

I just went to the server you set up at 9:25am Mountain time and I don’t see the Google Maps scripts being loaded. Did you use the same code you posted over at StackExchange to load the scripts when you set up the test server?

yes I did, but there has been slight changes due to troubleshootin.

Can you post the code you’re using on the test server? If there’s more than 20 lines or so, please use Pastebin and post the link here instead.

I figured it put. All the changes are posted at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40519085/wordpress-child-theme-google-map-api-google-places
