Use get_theme_file_uri and get_theme_file_path when enqueuing #2

Hey Logan; it's Justin here!

I think you should look at using get_theme_file_uri() and get_theme_file_path() instead of get_template_directory().

We use those two functions here at HY instead of get_template_directory_uri() and `get_template_directory() as they will check the current theme for a file; then check the parent theme.

Some more advanced sites may have themes that inherit from other themes; so we use the first two functions to make sure it functions how we want.
