9,113 Pointsadding jquery js files to my functions.php
I am using slick nav js file in my wordpress theme. I cant seem to get this working as it can't find the correct dir path.
I know it works on my html testing page fine but having real trouble with the functions.php
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wpt_theme_styles');
function wpt_theme_js() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'modernizr_js','https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/modernizr/2.6.2/modernizr.min.js');
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery_slicknav', get_template_directory_uri().'/js/jquery.slicknav.min.js', array('jquery'), '', true );
wp_enqueue_script( 'slick', get_template_directory_uri().'/js/slick.nav.js', array('jquery', 'jquery_slicknav'), '', true );
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_script', 'wpt_theme_js');
?>

the action hook is called wp_enqueue_scripts but you're writing wp_enqueue_script . Try adding the "s" in the end and see if that works.
I hope that helps! :)

9,113 PointsHi there, thanks for the quick response but It's still not working correctly. What is happening is slick nav menus are displaying on full screen but when I resize to mobile view the menu disappears. I know that the css is right so I'm not sure why it's not linking properly in functions.
I even try putting the js scripts in header.php to test and still nothing.

9,113 PointsThanks for that Tobias It was not only adding an s but I completely forgot that when a js file is in wordpress it doesn't like $ on it's own, so needed to wrap it in a jquery function like so:
