I am very new to build Wordpress Website, so please bear with me if I don't describe things properly.

There is a website providing the .js file for flying bats on the screen. /

It says that I can just insert the script by using

<script async src=".js"></script>

but it doesn't work on the website.

What did I do wrong? Do I have to change something in the JS file?

Thank you in advance.

• Where did you insert it? And did you follow the instructions and upload the file? – Jacob Peattie Commented Oct 29, 2018 at 11:49
• Thanks Jacob, I did download the file and use the plugin called "Header and Footer Script" to insert in Header by using <script async src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/jsbat.js"></script>. I do check the location on Media but it doesn't work. – Dan Commented Oct 29, 2018 at 11:54

Note: you should use child theme ( here I'll reference main theme )

I believe you've downloaded that jsbat.js file somewhere in your wordpress root directory consider this your root directory of web

/xampp/htdocs/wordpress_site/wp-content/themes/theme-name/assets/js/jsbat.js

now you'll need to find functions.php file in your theme. Typically this resides in this folder:

/xampp/htdocs/wordpress_site/wp-content/themes/theme-name/functions.php

edit functions.php file, and add following code:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'fy_load_scripts' );
function fy_load_scripts(){
       wp_enqueue_script( 'jsbat-script-js', get_template_directory_uri(). '/assets/js/jsbat.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0.0', true );
}

this is just generalized answer, please modify ( you won't need to create function 'fy_load_scripts' but in case you don't know what to do just copy and paste the code in functions.php file and the directory structure should be matched as well )

Hope this helps Good luck!
