I am trying to load a separate javascript file mobile-menu.js to my Wordpress theme. When I look at the console, it says, "jQuery is not defined." However, I know that I enqueued my script files correctly. Any ideas?
HTML file:
<a href="#" id="menu-icon"></a> <!--this line wasn't here originally-->
<div id="switchmenu"><!--switchmenu begin-->
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>
</div><!--switchmenu end-->
functions.php file:
function lapetitefrog_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'lapetitefrog-style', get_stylesheet_uri() );
wp_enqueue_script( 'lapetitefrog-mobile-menu', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/mobile-menu.js', array(), '1.0', true );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'lapetitefrog_scripts' );
mobile-menu.js file:
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('#menu-icon').click(function() {
$('#switchmenu').slideToggle("fast");
});
});
Add wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
before you enqueue your scripts.
