I want to add autosize.js to the form textarea (#comment) but if comment-reply.js is enabled no other javascript in the comments form works. Any idea why is this happening?

//Auto resise textarea
autosize( $("#comment") );

No errors in the console and works fine when comment-reply.js isn't enabled.

I also tried a simple test with a click event and it doesn't work also.

$("#comment").on( "click", function() {
    console.log("click");
});

    now you starting to get there, pity a downvote was needed :(. are you sure your textarea has a "comment" id? have you removed the comment-reply.js and actually saw that your click script works after that?

I found the cuplrit and has nothing to do with comment-reply.js.

I was targeting my javascript based on which template and of course the javascript wasn't loading.

if( $("body").hasClass("page") ){ ...

Needed to add this:

if( $("body").hasClass("page") || $("body").hasClass("single") ){ ...

  • happens to all of us. The take away should be that when you ask a question here make a minimal "prof of bug" snippet to post here. This problem would have been spotted by you while doing that, or spotted by someone else almost immediately.
