Can’t make wp_enqueue work

Question 1

I have this weird problem. Trying to enqueue a CSS file on an existing functions.php file and nothing seems to work. This is the pertinent part of the functions file, made by someone else based on TwentySixteen theme :

function twentysixteen_scripts() {

    // Add custom fonts, used in the main stylesheet.

    wp_enqueue_style( 'twentysixteen-fonts', twentysixteen_fonts_url(), array(), null );

    // Add Genericons, used in the main stylesheet.
    wp_enqueue_style( 'genericons', get_template_directory_uri() . '/genericons/genericons.css', array(), '3.4.1' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'bootstrap', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/bootstrap.css', array(), '3.4.1' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'theme-owl', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/owl.carousel.css', array(), '3.4.1' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'theme-owl-min', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/owl.theme.css', array(), '3.4.1' );



    // Theme stylesheet.

    wp_enqueue_style( 'twentysixteen-style', get_stylesheet_uri() );
     if (! is_front_page() || is_single())
    {wp_enqueue_style( 'blog-styles', get_template_directory_uri() . 'full-style.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20170410' );}
    // Load the Internet Explorer specific stylesheet.
    wp_enqueue_style( 'twentysixteen-ie', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/ie.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20150930' );
    /* 09.02.2017 */
    wp_enqueue_style( 'jquery-ui', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/jquery-ui.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20150930' );

    /* 09.02.2017 */
    wp_style_add_data( 'twentysixteen-ie', 'conditional', 'lt IE 10' );
    // Load the Internet Explorer 8 specific stylesheet.

    wp_enqueue_style( 'twentysixteen-ie8', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/ie8.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20151230' );
    wp_style_add_data( 'twentysixteen-ie8', 'conditional', 'lt IE 9' );
    // Load the Internet Explorer 7 specific stylesheet.
    wp_enqueue_style( 'twentysixteen-ie7', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/ie7.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20150930' );
    wp_style_add_data( 'twentysixteen-ie7', 'conditional', 'lt IE 8' );

        'collapse' => __( 'collapse child menu', 'twentysixteen' ),
    ) );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'twentysixteen_scripts' );

All of this works. Now, I want to enqueue yet another file. Additionally, I wanted to make it load conditionally, anywhere but front page, but at this point I’d be very happy by making it load at all!

First, I tried the conditional version (if ! is_front_page...) but didn’t work (I made it work on header.php, but I want it to load after everything else). Thinking there might be an error in my code, I tried enqueuing the file just to see it loads…. and nothing. Tried everything I could think of… and nothing.

So, as a last resource, I tried replacing one of the files that actually loads, custom-style --> css/custom.css and as weird as it sounds, it does nothing. Furthermore, if I check the source, even so css/custom.css shouldn’t be there, it still is. Just in case: I don’t have any cache and I can see any other changes that are not related to this file.

Finally, I tried to create a different function to enqueue files and nothing, it doesn’t work at all.

This is the code I tried to add with no luck:

{wp_enqueue_style( 'blog-styles', get_template_directory_uri() . 'full-style.css', array( 'twentysixteen-style' ), '20170410' );}

Finally, based on this answer I tried this, which would also help with the conditional part:

add_action('init', 'my_register_styles');

function my_register_styles() {
    wp_register_style( 'style1', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    wp_register_style( 'style2', get_template_directory_uri() . '/full-style.css' );
}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue_styles' );

function my_enqueue_styles() {
    if ( is_front_page() ) {
        wp_enqueue_style( 'style1' );
    } else {
        wp_enqueue_style( 'style2' );
    }
}

but as you probably imagine by now…. it didn’t work!

Question(s)

What is causing this? What am I doing wrong?
Is there a way to make the stylesheet load on header.php AFTER the enqueued scripts?

Question 2

Edit: I meant to refer to wp_dequeue_style()

You have to dequeque (unregister) the scripts or styles that you wish to replace before replacing them or the new parameters won’t be accepted. Use wp_dequeue_style(). Also, as it says in the description for wp_dequeue_script(), hook it with a late priority (100), so that it is after the script was enqueued.

I believe your function my_enqueue_styles() is where you would want to make use of wp_dequeue_style() just before wp_enqueue_style() is used. Something like this:

function my_enqueue_styles() {
    if ( is_front_page() ) {
        wp_dequeue_style( 'style1' );
        wp_enqueue_style( 'style1' );
    } else {
        wp_dequeue_style( 'style1' );
        wp_enqueue_style( 'style2' );
    }
}

Then add the integer 100 as an argument in your action hook.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue_styles', 100 );

Deque any other scripts or styles you wish to enqueue that have already been enqueued.
