 * Dear Customer Support,
 * We use HFCM plugin and it works well. But there is an issue with Javascript code.
   If I write a simple code it works fine, but if I try to write a code with selectors(
   like query selector or get element by ID) in some cases the code doesn’t work
   even though it was checked in the console. How is it possible to solve the issue?
 * Thank you.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcode-doesnt-work-5%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@paul8998](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paul8998/) – Thank you for
   contacting us. We think the issue is in your JavaScript code. To be specific,
   we think your selected id/class/tag on querySelector must be loaded before your
   JavaScript code executes.
 * Here’s a possible solution to your problem:
    1. Make sure location of your code
   selected as footer. 2. a. If you are running JQuery put your code inside following
   function. Also make sure JQuery library is loaded before your custom code loads.
 *     ```
       $( document ).ready(function() {
           // Your code goes here..
       });
       ```
   
 * Or
 * 2. b. If you are running vanilla JavaScript then use the following function.
 *     ```
       document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
         // Your code goes here..
       });
       ```
   
 * Please let us know if you need anything else.
 * Thanks
