# Adding Script to header.php

 * i am using (or attempting to) Google Consumer Surveys and in doing that it said
   to enter this script
    `<script async="" defer="" src="//survey.g.doubleclick.
   net/async_survey?site=fvcgiyy373qiajuhgbzl3t6idi"></script>`
 * before closing </head> tag, which I did enter the code snippet under my meta 
   data in header.php yet it is still not working
 * I am wondering if I need to use a form of `wp_enqueue_script`?
 * Can someone assist with this?
 * Thanks

 * Yea, you need to use wp_enqueue_script, their instructions would be for a non-
   wp site. In your functions.php file (or a plugin):
 *     ```
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_survey' );
       function enqueue_survey() {
         wp_register_script('survey','//survey.g.doubleclick.net/async_survey?site=fvcgiyy373qiajuhgbzl3t6idi');
         wp_enqueue_script('survey');
       }
       ```

 * it is a WordPress site though.. would that change where i input the code — like
   in the header.php file?

 * No, you should add that code to your functions.php file. When WordPress renders
   the page, it will add the script tag where it should be.

 * it is still not working.. i added the code you put there in the functions.php
   file and it still is not showing the survey.
 * Then i added just the script in the header.php to see if that was it but it’s
   not.
 * How can i get this thing to work?

 * If you view source using my method is the script properly included? Can I take
   a look at the site?

 * Well, the script is loading correctly, so we got that far. What exactly are you
   expecting to see? You probably need to initialize it somehow.

 * It works now… ??? i went to the homepage of my site and it wasnt there but when
   i clicked on another page the survey showed up?? i don’t know why it took that
   long to show.. it shouldn’t have been that complicated.
 * Anyway, thanks for your help
