Can't Upload JavaScript File

What kind of JS file is it, what do you intend to do with it, and where are you expecting it to show up?

@macmanx It includes Jquery for a drag and drop. Also so I can loop through information from a database and display it on the site. Sorry for the late response.

Ok, but where are you expecting it to show up?

I mean, you should have no trouble uploading a JS file via FTP or SFTP, then including it in your theme functions. WordPress doesn’t/can’t prevent that.

Yes I added a css file before by simply uploading the file through the FTP and it worked fine. I did the same process for the js file but it won’t appear on the side where the rest of the files are in WordPress admin.

Right, it won’t, that editor only displays theme files. It won’t display third-party JS files.

So where should we upload the js file and expect to find it?

You won’t find it in the WordPress Dashboard.

Let us know why you need to find it in the Dashboard, and we might have some recommendations.

I need to know the path to the file so that I can add the link to my header or functions.php

Ok, well if you added it via FTP or SFTP, the path is wherever you put it. ??

Some (S)FTP clients allow you to right-click the file and choose something like “Show Path”.
