   When using wp_enqueue_script I cannot get Jquery to load.

   Plugins that attempt to load it also fail.

   I have wp_head and as well as wp_footer calls where necessary.

   No errors are thrown (by PHP) and it still happens when I disable all plugins.

   I am stumped.

   Where are you putting your call to wp_enqueue_script? Try adding the following to your theme's functions.php file:
   

   <?php
   function my_jquery_init() {
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
   }    
   
   add_action('init', 'my_jquery_init');
   ?>

   I tried that too -- no luck.

   I can place the call before or after the wp_head call.. it doesnt make a difference. No JQUERY is ever loaded.

   I load jQuery into a theme (as well as other stuff that I've edited out) with the following with no problem:

   function theme_queue_js(){
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
   }
   add_action('get_header', 'theme_queue_js');

   Its worked through several WP versions so far.

   @apljdi, what happen when you enter the dashboard ? is it still working ? Dashboard panel has its own jquery, is it ?

   In practice, I filter it out of the admin section with an is_admin conditional. I think there is probably a less hackie way to do it but I haven't come back around to that project yet. I don't that that wp_enqueue_script with load the same file twice though.
