  • Doesn't apply to wp-admin

    I needed to change jquery version in the backend (wp-admin). But aparently it only changes the version on the front end.

  • Saved The Day!

    I inherited an older site with a theme that never got updated. Recently, some of the functions started to fail. (drop down navigation, in particular) After much searching, I thought about how the jQuery might be in conflict. This plugin immediately solved the issue and the site is back up and running smoothly. I'll clearly need to get the theme updated and all the customization carried over, but for now, this was a lifesaver! Thanks.

  • Love it --- though would like to see...

    It's a fantastic plugin. Does almost everything I want with this. The one thing I would suggest adding is to select which CDN you would like to pull the jQuery files from (jQuery, cdnjs/CloudFlare, Google, bootcdn, etc). The reason I say this is b/c jQuery.com doesn't have http/2, whereas cdnjs does, and the Google one I would imagine would be using gQUIC. Also, it would be nice if you only need the slim, vs the whole, etc. Another reason is that one CDN maybe a little faster in one specific area vs another (like if you get most of your traffic from a specific area... like let's say you're a small business in MN, USA... or maybe you are a business that only works with people in Germany - and so most your traffic is there?).
