 * Hello all,
 * I am trying to do a conditional enqueue of scripts, to cut down on load time,
   but this code in functions.php does not seem to be working and I can’t figure
   out what it is that I’m missing. The non-conditional scripts are enqueuing, but
   the conditional ones arent loading on the pages they are supposed to, or any 
   pages at all, for that matter.
 * Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
 *     ```
       function my_ck_scripts()
       {
       	wp_register_script ('jquerymin', 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js');
       	wp_register_script ('jqueryui', 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8/jquery-ui.min.js');
       	wp_register_script( 'caseykaplan', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/ck.js');
       	wp_enqueue_script('jquerymin');
       	wp_enqueue_script('jqueryui');
       	wp_enqueue_script('caseykaplan');
   
           if(is_page_template( array('archive-news.php', 'archive-exhibitions.php', 'category-art-fairs.php', 'category-artist-news.php', 'category-events.php', 'category-gallery-news.php', 'category-upcoming.php') )) {
                   wp_register_script('masonry', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.masonry.min.js');
                   wp_enqueue_script('masonry');
           }
   
            if(is_page_template( array('exhibition-images-page.php', 'artist-images-page.php') )) {
                   wp_register_script('bxslider', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.bxSlider.min.js');
                   wp_enqueue_script('bxslider');
           }
   
       }
   
       add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','my_ck_scripts');
       ```

 * I don’t believe that is_page_template() will accept an array… only a string. 
   See here:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_page_template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_page_template)
 * So basically you’ll have to change this line:
 * `if(is_page_template( array('archive-news.php', 'archive-exhibitions.php', 'category-
   art-fairs.php', 'category-artist-news.php', 'category-events.php', 'category-
   gallery-news.php', 'category-upcoming.php') )) {`
 * to:
 * `if(is_page_template( 'archive-news.php' ) || is_page_template( 'archive-exhibitions.
   php' ) || ...`
 * And the same with the other if statement.
