[Resolved] JavaScript Compatibility

[Jennifer]

Hello,

I am building a mega menu and it involves javascript. I have read some your forums and you say to place it in a hook and display after_footer. This is not working at all.

How can we get the block to accept javascript code. I even installed code embed and that did not work either. How do I use this javascript code with hooks?

Please help me :).

LAYOUT CODE

<div class="toggler">
<a href="#" aria-label="">Discovery Bible</a>

Hi there,

Javascript should go in wp_footer typically.

Where did you get the code from? Are you sure it’s working?

I would consider using a mega menu plugin for something like this.

Okay yes, I got it to work, thank you 🙂

[Leo]

No problem 🙂
