Page tried to load JQuery from root folder?

    I’ve been trying to tidy up my site and ensure everything is running smoothly.

    http://www.treforestvets.com

    One problem I can’t get past is that something is trying to load jquery from the root folder /jquery.js (instead of wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js). This comes up as one of the longest load delays on pingdom.

    If I put a copy of jquery.js in my root folder, whatever is looking for it clearly finds it and there is no 404 console error and load speed increases.

    I get the impression this is not a very good way of fixing it and I should be doing it ‘properly’. I believe I should be sending all jquery requests to the copy included in wordpress core files.

    How do I go about investigating and fixing this problem?

    Sounds like bad theme or plugin. Can you replicate the problem using the default Twenty Fourteen theme with all plugins deactivated?

    appears to be the offending code from the index in console.

    I think it’s related to the admin bar, note the src=jquery.js

    how do i alter this to use jquery properly in WP?
