This code is working in my functions.php and it's loaded properly:

add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'js_custom', 50);
function js_custom() {
    wp_register_script( 'js_custom', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/custom.js', false, null);
    wp_enqueue_script( 'js_custom' );
}

However, this is not working and not loaded:

if ( is_page(273) ) {
    add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'js_custom', 50);
    function js_custom() {
        wp_register_script( 'js_custom', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/custom.js', false, null);
        wp_enqueue_script( 'js_custom' );
    }
}

Why it's not loaded? I am on the page with the id equal to 273.

I had a similar issue once. I found that running the add_action call outside the conditional worked. So try this:

    function js_custom() {
        if ( is_page(273) ) {
            wp_register_script( 'js_custom', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/custom.js', false, null);
            wp_enqueue_script( 'js_custom' );
        }
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'js_custom', 50);

  • Hmm, I am getting this error: Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function 'js_custom' not found or invalid function name Commented Dec 15, 2013 at 12:10
  • Sorry! Edited answer. The conditional had to go inside the function call. Try it now. Commented Dec 15, 2013 at 12:15
  • Thanks, now it's working ;). Btw. I would consider this as a bug in WP. Should I post it to the WP team? Or this is not a bug? Commented Dec 15, 2013 at 12:26
  • I'm not qualified to say if it's really a bug or not. This is a simple enough fix to wrap the contents of your function in the conditional, that we can continue to do that. Commented Dec 15, 2013 at 12:59
  • @Derfder It's not a bug but I'll admit the add_action, do_action, add_filter, apply_filter stuff isn't very intuitive when you're getting started with WordPress. Var dump $wp_query in the actual is_page function with the two difference scripts and you'll see the difference. Commented Dec 15, 2013 at 17:03
