 * Hello,
 * I copied and modified js/maps.js
 * But when in theme-child/js.maps.js it don’t make any difference.
 * I was reading that i have to insert this code into theme-child/functions.php
 *     ```
       add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_javascript_files');
       function load_javascript_files() {
       	wp_register_script('ajax_call_mkto', get_template_directory_uri() . 'js/marketo_wp_ajax.js', array('jquery'), true );
       	wp_enqueue_script('ajax_call_mkto');
       }
       ```
   
 * can someone offer some help ?
 * thank you

 * You need to use “get_stylesheet_uri” instead of “get_template_directory_uri”
