can someone tell me why this code doesn’t work? The is_page() is not in effect.
function tao_scripts() {
if (!is_admin()) {
wp_deregister_script('jquery');
wp_register_script('jquery', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js', false, '1.4.2');
wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
if ( is_page() ) {
wp_register_script('jquery-validate', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.validate.min.js', 'jquery', '1.7');
wp_enqueue_script('jquery-validate');
}
}
}
add_action('init', 'tao_scripts');
The code is in a php file which is included i my functions.php.
I have tried all I could find/think of. Without the is_page() conditional it works. I have tried with wp_reset_query(), no help. Im sure wordpress knows its a page. is_page(34, ‘name’, ‘Name’) wont help either.
It is to do with the order of actions
this action occurs way before the query object is extracted
Technically, Torok is wrong.
is_pageworks perfectly fine outside the loop. I imagine it’s not working because you’re not using wp_register_script correctly. The dependencies need to be an array:That should do it.
EDIT:
As TheDeadMedic pointed out, you should also hook this on a later hook. The earliest one you should use is
wp. I’d actually suggest usingtemplate_redirect, since that will only run if you’re on the front end (unless you want to replace jQuery on the back end too).Can you try to test your function with specific page:
