 * Hi all,
 * I’m getting this message on top of all of the pages on my testing site even though
   wp_debug is turned off:
 * > Warning: explode() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given in /webserver/
   > scenicbyways/www/test/wp-includes/functions.wp-scripts.php on line 135
 * This is a duplicate issue to [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/functionswp-scriptsphp-error?replies=4),
   but I’m adding here since it’s not “requests and feedback.”
 * As suggested by Ipsentu, I manually re-installed wordpress core files from a 
   clean download to no avail. I also disabled all plugins with no luck.
 * The site isn’t “public” yet, but here’s a link to the test:
    [http://www.bywayswestmass.com/test/](http://www.bywayswestmass.com/test/)
 * Can anyone point me in the right direction?

 * I should also note that this message is not appearing on my local version, and
   not on a test installation on another server, leading me to believe this may 
   have something to do with the server config.
 * But, I’m not sure where to start debugging that. Any general thoughts on where
   to start?

 * Try re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from
   a **fresh** download of WordPress again. This time, make sure that you delete
   the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.
 * And do please indicate which version of WordPress you are using when opening 
   a new topic. I’ve edited this topic to indicate your WP version based on your
   response in the previous thread.

 * Emsi, sorry about that. Yes, I’m on 3.5.1. That’s what I tried previously, but
   I just tried again for good measure. Same problem.
 * I then installed the stock Twenty Twelve theme and activated it and don’t get
   the error message there, so guessed this has something to do with my theme, which
   is a customization of the [underscores](http://underscores.me/) starter theme.
 * Did some more digging and found this line in my functions.php:
 * `wp_enqueue_script( array( 'jquery' ), '20120206', true );`
 * That was an incorrect usage of wp_enqueue_script that I forgot to comment out.
   I guess the issue didn’t pop up for a few days because the rest of the site had
   been cached. For reference, this is the correct way to include the WordPress-
   bundled jQuery:
 * `wp_enqueue_script('jquery');`
 * Still interested to know why the warning only popped up on this particular server
   and not on localhost or another test server though.
