 * There are different ways but this should work. Put your script in /uploads and
   use this code in functions.php for your child theme:
 *     ```
       <?php
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_my_script' );
       function add_my_script() {
         wp_enqueue_script( 'my-js', '/wp-content/uploads/my_script.js', array(), "1", true);
       }
       ```
