Enqueing a jQuery script in Wordpress

Question

I am trying to enqueue a jQuery script to my Wordpress site but for some reason it is not adding. Below is my code I've added to my child theme's functions.php file.

<?php

function itm_adding_scripts() {
wp_register_script('my_amazing_script', '/wp-content/themes/italic-child/js/jQuery.equalHeights.js/js/jQuery.equalHeights.js',   array('jquery'),'1.1', true);
wp_enqueue_script('my_amazing_script');
}

add_action( '_enqueue_scripts', 'itm_adding_scripts' );  
?>

You have a typo in the action missing wp prefix

Change

add_action( '_enqueue_scripts', 'itm_adding_scripts' );

To

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'itm_adding_scripts' );

Reference: wp_enqueue_scripts docs

You have a typo in your action. It should be wp_enqueue_scripts

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'itm_adding_scripts' );
