 * A very annoying javascript alert is comming up in all my WooCommerce sites as
   of yesterday. It says:
    `blockUI requires jQuery v1.3 or later! You are using
   v1.10.0`
 * Problem is that if I update to a newer version of jQuery plugins start to thorw
   errors.
 * Any recommendations on how to make it compatible:

 * I had this same issue after updating WooCommerce. I reverted back to ver 2.0.5
   and I’ll keep it that way until someone can provide a better solution

 * Solved.
 * 1. Go to [https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/tree/master/assets/js/jquery-blockui](https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/tree/master/assets/js/jquery-blockui)
 * 2. Download the 2 js files. Make sure that the file extension remains as .js 
   after you’ve downloaded them. My firefox turns them into .js.htm files. If that
   happens, manaully remove the “.htm” in the file name.
 * 3. Use your ftp or control panel, go into folder where woocommerce stores the
   2 js files.
    i.e. wpcontent / plugins / woocommerce / assets / js / jquery-blockui
 * 4. Backup the 2 files in the folder
 * 5. Overwrite the 2 files with the ones you just downloaded.
 * Refresh you site. The annoying message should go away. 🙂

 * Realized that the files for github will somehow cause some problems with the 
   variations in the product post.
 * So I loaded back my original backup.
 * Edit the 2 original files jquery.blockUI and jquery.blockUI.min by removing the
   command below in both files (make sure you backup first):
 * alert(‘blockUI requires jQuery v1.3 or later! You are using v’ + $.fn.jquery);
   return;
 * Do not delete the {} at the front and back of the command though.
 * That stopped the annoying alert on the webpages and then the variations will 
   still work! 🙂
 * Until woocommerce come up with a fix….

 * I was also getting the BlockUI error after updating to WordPress 3.6, it looks
   like WooCommerce was the culprit.
 * Removing “alert(‘blockUI requires jQuery v1.3 or later! You are using v’ + $.
   fn.jquery);return;” (but not the “{” or “}” as nonick80 mentioned) fixed it for
   me.
 * The files I needed to remove the line of code from were:
 * …/woocommerce/assets/js/jquery-ui.js
    …/woocommerce/assets/js/jquery-ui-min.js
 * and
 * …/woocommerce/assets/js/admin/woocommerce_admin.js
    …/woocommerce/assets/js/admin/
   woocommerce_admin.min.js
 * Thanks for the tips and I hope my post and the rest here have helped people.

 * Can the files be changed to only load on the required pages for WooCommerce and
   not every page in the admin please.

 * Thank you WPyogi… I did see that post earlier… But, I’m not sure WHERE to replace
   the jqueryui file…
 * Any thoughts?

 * I’m getting the same error on the front also. Didn’t notice until just now. So
   since upgrading WordPress we now have to change a jQuery file. Can’t WordPress
   just correct this and release a quick update ?
