Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Custom javascript not deploying correctlyWell, I’ve tried adding the script to functions.php without much luck; it just crashes the site. My script is pretty extensive (about 400 lines) and clearly something in there is disagreeing with the php.

In reply to: Custom javascript not deploying correctlySo put my script into functions.php, then *not* link it to the header via wp_enqueue_script? Or do I still need to initialize it with that in the head? (and if so, why include a directory name as the get_template_directory_uri?)
Thanks again for the help.

In reply to: Custom javascript not deploying correctlyI think I’d tried it before, but to be sure I just tried it using:
<?php function my_scripts_method() { wp_enqueue_script( 'custom-script', get_template_directory_uri() . '/my-script-name.js', array( 'jquery' ) ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method' ); ?>
in the <head>, but my function is still being reported as not defined.

In reply to: Custom javascript not deploying correctlyI have, and unless I missed something, it suggests loading scripts using the
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/pathto/yourscript.js"></script>
method for scripts in the template (which I’m attempting, as opposed to in posts, which I’m not).When I attempt this, I get an error saying that my function is undefined.
As I mentioned, too, using
<script type="text/javascript" src="pathto/yourscript.js"></script>
results in the script injecting its contents below the main content area, rather than in its generated div.I dunno, does that seem to imply that the conflict is in my javascript itself? Does WP have difficulty with document.createElement(‘div’)? Should I change my dynamic divs’ names to avoid potential conflict?
