WordPress.WP.EnqueuedResourceParameters.NotInFooter
Not In Footer
A script or stylesheet is loaded without the expected WordPress enqueue metadata.
Why It Shows Up
The scan found missing versions, missing footer placement, or scripts/styles printed directly instead of being enqueued.
Why It Matters
Proper enqueueing lets WordPress manage dependencies, versions, placement, caching, and compatibility with other plugins.
How to Fix
- Register or enqueue assets with handles, dependencies, versions, and placement arguments.
- Use a file modification time or plugin version for local asset versions when appropriate.
- Avoid printing script or stylesheet tags directly in templates.
