    Example. Plugins and WordPress core use this function to insert crucial elements into your document (e.g., scripts, styles, and meta tags). Always put wp_head() just before the closing tag of your theme (usually in header.php):

    1
    2
    3
    4
    <head>
        <!-- First add the elements you need in <head>; then last, add: -->
        <?php wp_head(); ?>
    </head>
