  • Thank You!

    I run this on a website which has a paid premium theme for a music band. I make wordpress websites myself but the drop of jquery support on wordpress broke some of the functionality. What just works works, thank you for the updates!

  • No support for jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=3.3.2:2

    The plugin does not have support for jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=3.3.2:2 Which several of my plugins require. Furthermore it should roll back changes when deactivated.

  • Brilliant and sanity saving

    Fantastic and butt saving plugin. The slideshow on an old site with an abandoned theme broke on updating WordPress to 5.8 due to the jQuery v3 change. No matter what I tried I couldn't fix it... until I worked out that it was the jQuery version and then found this plugin. With jQuery Manager for WordPress I was able to select and use jQuery v1 and jQuery Migrate and the slideshow started workng again. You beauty. The big clear debug labels in the front end are a nice touch. Thank you kindly. Greatly appreciated.
