I can't enqueue my scripts - They literally aren't being added to my site
Ok, I've literally copy-pasted different enqueueing code from about 5 different sources (Including wordpress), and not a single one works.
Here's the code I'm using in functions.php:
?php
function my_theme_scripts() {
wp_register_script(
'main',
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/main.js',
array( 'jquery' ), '1.0.0', true
);
wp_enqueue_script('main');
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_scripts' );
?
and it literally does nothing. No scripts added into my HTML. nothing.
This is my first time using wordpress, and nobody has explained the functions file to me completely right, but from my understanding, i don't do anything like do I?
I've also put ?php wp_footer(); ?
right before /body
if that means anything.
EDIT: I've solved the problem
Stupidly, I'd forgotten to add ?php wp_head(); ?
right before /head
, this screwed it all up. I also changed the 'main' identifier to something more unique, which didn't change anything but might be a better practice anyway.
