# can’t enqueue child theme script

 * Hi Folks,
 * We’re using a Divi child theme.
 * In the child theme’s functions.php, we have:
 *     ```
       function sit_divi_scripts() {
           wp_enqueue_script( 'gtm', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/gtm.js', array(), '1.0.0', true );
       }
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'sit_divi_scripts' );
       ```
   
 * This fails to load the `<script>` tag on the front-end.
 * When I use:
 *  `wp_enqueue_script( 'gtm', get_template_directory_uri() ...`
 * the front end will load the `<script>` tag but it points to the parent theme 
   directory, which is not where the script lives.
 * Help appreciated.

 * If you’re using the Divi theme then you need to avail yourself of their support.
