[Support request] how to include jquery

[david]

Hi, I’d like to include the following jquery into my sites home page:

$(“.test”).chosen({
search_contains: false,
enable_split_word_search: false
});

Please can you explain exactly where and what I need to insert for this to work

Thanks
David

Hi there,

simplest way is to add the script to a Hook Element:

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-element-overview/

Add the script like so:

<script>
jQuery(".test").chosen({
    search_contains: false,
    enable_split_word_search: false
});
</script>

Select the WP_footer hook from the list and set your display rules to the Front Page.

Hi David,
Thanks for this, how do I “set your display rules to the Front Page.”

Thanks
David

[David]

When editing the Hook element – go to the Display Rules tab – Select Location: Front Page.

Hi David,
Don’t see a “Display rules tab”

Only options I see are Execute PHP, Disable Hook and Save Hooks

Thanks

[David]

Aah ok – looks like you’re still using the old Hooks module. You can enable Appearance > GeneratePress > Elements module then you should see Appearance > Elemements and they will have a Display Rules tab.
Any old Hooks or Page Headers will appear in the Elements module under legacy.

I now have Appearance > Elements, but all I see at the top of the page is:

Add New, Legacy Page Headers, Legacy Hooks

Clicking Legacy Hooks brings up my wp-footer hook

[David]

Click Add New > Hook.
This document shows the Hook Element settings:

ok, so now where do I put

<script>
jQuery(".test").chosen({
    search_contains: false,
    enable_split_word_search: false
});
</script>

Do I place it in the empty box (with no title) above the settings bar

[David]

Below the ‘Add New Element’ is the Title field, followed by the content field, where you add that code, which is above the settings bar
