I've created a child theme and am running my site on that so that I can customise a form that I'm including on certain pages using the plugin 'contact-form-7". In my child folder I've placed a style.css, functions.php and js/custom_script.js. the style sheet is being imported fine but I can't seem to get my validation jquery file working on that form. This is the code I've been using:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_my_script' );
function add_my_script() {
wp_register_script( 'custom_script', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom_script.js' ,array( 'jquery'));
wp_enqueue_script( 'custom_script' );
}
console isn't logging any errors but I can't seem to find it in the web tools side bar UNLESS I remove "js/" when the custom_script is called, in which case a GET error pops up.
I'm guessing I'm incorrectly importing the file and honestly I can't quite get my head around these hooks and importing files just yet- only been using wordpress a short time.
Any help much appreciated.
