JavaScript

js opening and closing tags on scripts break functions.

Hello,

I am working on moving some scripts out of my divi theme integrations section and enquing them in the child them functions.php.

I have setup a number of script.js files in my-theme/js/ folder and I have coppied the code into the files, but I finding that the code is rejected while the opening and closing tags are in place.

I am not even close to an expert in js, but if there is any advise on what might be going on here I would happy to hear it.

Cheers,

Peter

Can you post some code? It's pretty difficult to visualize what you're trying to accomplish.

<script> tags are only required when you're directly embedding into an HTML file (inline or externally). When all of your code resides in a .js file, no <script> tags are required.

The enqueueing functionality in WordPress will add an external <script src="path/to/file"> to the HTML. It will definitely error out the way you have it.

Thank you.

Can you see any obviouse errors in the code?

I am noticing when the code is enqued in functions.php not all of the code functions correctly, but the same code in the divi includes section works perfectly.

Best,

Peter

Impossible for me to eyeball any errors. I have the faintest what you're trying to accomplish.

This is everything from the integrations section.

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){jQuery('.et-cart-info').clone().insertAfter('.mobile_menu_bar_toggle');});
</script>

<script>
    (function($) {
  function setup_collapsible_submenus() {
    var $menu = $('#mobile_menu'),
      top_level_link = '#mobile_menu .menu-item-has-children > a';
    $menu.find('a').each(function() {
      $(this).off('click');
      if ($(this).is(top_level_link)) {
        $(this).attr('href', '#');
      }
      if (!$(this).siblings('.sub-menu').length) {
        $(this).on('click', function(event) {
          $(this).parents('.mobile_nav').trigger('click');
        });
      } else {
        $(this).on('click', function(event) {
          event.preventDefault();
          $(this).parent().toggleClass('visible');
        });
      }
    });
  }
  $(window).load(function() {
    setTimeout(function() {
      setup_collapsible_submenus();
    }, 700);
  });
})(jQuery);
</script>

<script>
(function($) {
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $('.et-cart-info').attr('href', '#0');
  });
})(jQuery);
</script>

I have broken it down into three separate scripts, but it only seems to work in the integrations section of divi

Thanks Rich
