How is this file name and path incorrect?

http://somup.com/coh3f7lq5

Just look at the error that it keeps spitting out for a second (b/c I know there might be other mistakes).

Am I wrong here? That is the correct filepath and name, right? What am I missing?

plugin.php 
<?php
function my_plugin_frontend_scripts(){
  wp_enqueue_style( 'my_plugin_frontend_css', plugins_url( 'my-plugin/css/front-end.css' ) );
  wp_enqueue_script( 'my_plugin_frontend_js', plugins_url( 'js/front-end.js' ), array('jquery'), '', true  );
}




?>

Hi Brad,

This one is a bit tricky as it's expecting you to use the same path structure as the CSS file which is how the plugins_url function works as it bases the path from /home/user/wp-content/plugins/ thus requiring you to including my-plugin as part of the string.

my-plugin/js/front-end.js

Aside from that your code was perfect :smiley:
