# Getting comment-reply script to be loaded

 * I’m trying to get the `comment-reply` script to load on my site for my blog posts.
 * I have the following in my `header.php` file:
 *     ```
       <?php if( is_singular() && comments_open() && get_option( 'thread_comments' ) ) { wp_enqueue_script( 'comment-reply' ); } ?>
       <?php wp_head(); ?>
       ```
   
 * However, when using `view-source:` there is no trace of the `comment-reply.js`
   file that I would expect.
 * Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this to be loaded?
 * My site url is [http://www.thomas-russell.co.uk](http://www.thomas-russell.co.uk)
   if it helps,
 * Thanks!

 * If I go to your blog, I can see “comment-reply.min.js” is being loaded. [Check this screenshot.](http://support.jekkilekki.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2014/12/thomas-russell-comment-reply-js.png)
 * Is this the JS file you want?
 * There are three conditions that must be met for that script to be enqueued, right?
    1. You’re on a single Post page (is_singular())
    2. Comments are open (comments_open())
    3. You have Threaded Comments enabled (get_option( ‘thread_comments’ ))
 * When you check if your JS is loading, don’t check `view-source:` but rather, 
   right-click, `Inspect Element` and then check out the `Sources` tab for your 
   JS.
 * Does that help or am I missing something?

 * Oh right, I couldn’t find it in the `view-source:` so I assumed that it wasn’t
   being loaded, I didn’t realize that the `Sources` tab was the better way to check
   for it.
 * Thank you very much for your help!
