text at loading page

``` * It’s just a script that changes the same paragraph with a different text when you click on the image with the same class as the one from function. I am not an expert with jquery and I don’t know how to make this work in posts. Also if there is any other form so that script be written to minify, please tell me. I tried the solutions from Codex as well as some plugins (Javascrip in posts, Advanced Custom Fields) with no result. - This topic was modified 9 years, 6 months ago by [Jan Dembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/).

If you prefer to include it, you can use plugins to include scripts. One such plugin is [jQuery in Posts Pages](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jquery-in-posts-pages/) * If you prefer to it add it via `functions.php`, then this code should help you. * ``` // Reference: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/151883/83739 function wpb_adding_scripts() { wp_enqueue_script( 'my_amazing_script', get_template_directory_uri() . '/removeArrows.js', array('jquery'),'0.1', true ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wpb_adding_scripts' ); ``` * And finally use `jQuery` in place of `$` in your js file. - This reply was modified 9 years, 6 months ago by [Jan Dembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/). - This reply was modified 9 years, 6 months ago by [Jan Dembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/). * Thread Starter [johncannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johncannon/) * (@johncannon) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-in-posts-7/#post-8170413) * I tried with the jQuery in Posts Pages as well as via functions.php. It just doesn’t work, I don’t know what I am doing wrong. Exactly the same script on homepage works great. I have edited functions.php and replaced “my_amazing_script” with the URL [http://…etc/filename.js](http://…etc/filename.js) where I pasted that script with jQuery instead of $. - This reply was modified 9 years, 6 months ago by [johncannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johncannon/). * [Maria Daniel Deepak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariadanieldeepak/) * (@mariadanieldeepak) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-in-posts-7/#post-8174276) * [@johncannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johncannon/), * In the following line, `my_amazing_script` is the handle for your script.
