From Bootstrap to WordPress -> Add Bootstrap CSS via the functions.php File

Question

bootstrap.css.min isnt loading correctly

time of where it stops working for me is 3:04ish

I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I've looked everywhere.

The link below is the closest that I could find that was the same problem but his was a typo, and I'm still getting JavaScript errors in the console log including my css file that is even referenced in the link below for a step to check work for error in code. https://teamtreehouse.com/community/the-bootstrapmincss-doesnt-seem-to-be-loading

functions.php

<?php 

function theme_styles() {


    wp_enqueue_style( 'bootstrap_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/bootstrap.min.css' );


}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts)', 'theme_styles' );

?>

Please delete from header.php line:

<!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->
<link href="../../dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

It should be ok :) You are loading bootstrap styles in functions.php and it's correct.
