Actually you shouldn't add JS and CSS files to your header.php
, but make use of the functions wp_enqueue_script()
and wp_enqueue_style()
to add them there. Example taken from the code page:
/**
* Proper way to enqueue scripts and styles
*/
function theme_name_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'style-name', get_stylesheet_uri() );
wp_enqueue_script( 'script-name', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/example.js', array(), '1.0.0', true );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_name_scripts' );
