Following How to add a javascript snippet to the footer that requires jQuery I am trying to load jQuery before my script does stuff but it's not working.

This is it working when I include jQuery manually

This is it not working when I do it the right way.

In that previous question, the answerer says I should put my script material inside an if( wp_script_is( 'jquery', 'done' ) ) {, and I tried that too but the part within the if never gets executed.

    Why not just hook everything to wp_enqueue_scripts and put it in separate javascript files if you're just going to wrap it in jQuery(document).ready(function($).. anyway?

    Do you see jQuery in source at all when queueing? Also you should be using wp_enqueue_scripts hook rather than more generic wp_head.

  • @Rarst TRhank you!! I saw that it loads after my code.. I should put wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' ); outside of myscript_jquery() function. It's working now. :)

  • @AndrewBartel Part of my script has to be dynamically made, using variables from my plugin. (I'm looking into how to achieve my goal without that, but this is still a valid approach, no?)

    use wp_localize_script to pass data from php to javascript, no need to print it directly to the page yourself.
