 * Hi and thanks in advance.
 * I’m not an absolute beginner but not a developer either. Trying to build my own
   site. working on a localhost and have a partially updated live version up.
 * Using bootstrapwp-v1 by rachael baker as my base theme and have created a static
   page as the front page. I can get some of the bootstrap functionality going but
   I want to include some functionality from different bootstrap themes (an up button
   that fades in and out, isotope gallery, touch touch etc) into the theme that 
   I am working with.
 * I am stuck on this: wordpress will read and enque the scripts that are included
   in my base theme, but I cannot seem to get wordpress to recognize other javascript
   and jquery so that I can activate the other functions that I want to include.
   perhaps not being called correctly or paths or syntax? How do I do this?
 * I think that I need to put code in the head, page and footer as well as functions
   php. I don’t know. Any help appreciated
 * Thanks again

 * If you are enqueueing files, they should be enqueued in the functions.php file.
   You must also have a call to wp_head and wp_footer in order to load most scripts
   and files.
