 * On the new “Pages” screen the entire interface is broken, console errors as follows:
 * Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
    jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js:
   11 Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined jquery.mjs.nestedSortable.js:
   24 Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined nestedpages.min.js:1 Uncaught
   ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined admin?page=nestedpages:44 Uncaught ReferenceError:
   jQuery is not defined
 * I’ve tried disabling all other plugins, blank theme, etc.

 * One quick update, turning off script concatenation does restore plugin functionality.
   I used the following instructions:
 * [http://www.kevinleary.net/wordpress-admin-jquery-is-not-defined/](http://www.kevinleary.net/wordpress-admin-jquery-is-not-defined/)
 * Without adding the line referenced to wp-config the plugin doesn’t run for me
   in an empty theme with no other plugins activated.

 * One more possibly related issue: when using the “Add Child” function, it is impossible
   to publish a page. The new page interface loads, but upon hitting submit the 
   following javascript console error is outputted:
 * Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘length’ of undefined
 * This error prevents the publishing of the page, causing it to hang indefinitely.

 * My apologies, there are no errors here! One bad .htaccess redirect was the cause
   of everything.
