Can't get do_not_defer to work

I can’t get the do_not_defer filter hook to work.

I added this to my child functions file, as you recommend:
```
function scripts_to_not_defer(){
return array('jquery','jquery.flexslider-min.js?v=1.0');
}
add_filter('do_not_defer','scripts_to_not_defer');
```
I’ve tried it with the script’s full url, with and without the version number, etc, but it still gets deferred.

Any ideas how I could get it to work?

Hello,
Sorry for the time of reply ^^

It’s just because do_not_defer need an array of handles ; I think jquery.flexslider-min.js?v=1.0 is not an handle…

Since version 2.0.0, we complete the readme section about filters.

You need to find the handle of a js script to put in the array. Put this in your functions.php temporarily it will print all script handles for scripts being enqueued on a page:
```
function inspect_scripts_or_styles() {
    echo "<br />JS assets:<br />";
    global $wp_scripts;
    foreach( $wp_scripts->queue as $handle ) :
        echo $handle . '<br />';
    endforeach;
}

add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'inspect_scripts_or_styles' );
```

Don’t lose your time with this, the upgrade to v2 broke everything. Even following their guide is useless, nothing works anymore.

Just rollback to the last pre-2.0 version.

Hello @jamminjames,
Contrary to what @al_whatever said, rolling back to a previous release will do nothing…
do_not_defer work in the same way : it take an array of scripts handles, not an array of scripts url. You can use the function proposed by @cotswoldphoto to find your script handle.

@al_whatever, if you encounter a problem with the new release, you can open a new topic and I will help you.
