Title: jQuery problem Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # jQuery problem * [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/) * I am having trouble with UberMenu clashing with my theme/plugins. I have been told by the UberMenu technical support people that my WordPress is calling multiple old versions of jQuery. Can someone tell me how to go about fixing this as i haven’t had any luck. * The problem occurs only when i enable UberMenu. Then the slider and various other plugins stop working. Once i disable it they work fine again. * One of the plugins is the Nivo Slider that is built into the theme. I have tried contacting the people who made the theme but they wouldn’t help. * The website is: [http://meditateincopenhagen.org/2012/](http://meditateincopenhagen.org/2012/). * If someone can tell me how to solve this problem and get the site only calling one version of jQuery that would be great. I have tried telling it to only call the newest version but it didn’t help.

I am trying to install Gantry Framework plug in. Installation fails because it says its is already installed but it is not on my plug in list. I need to activate it to take my website to active mode.

Try switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to confirm this. * [thelmareeves](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thelmareeves/) * (@thelmareeves) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194625) * I am so sorry I am new to the site and dont know how to use it.

FullCalendar is one of the plugins that UberMenu has been interfering with. So it points to a problem with the theme and one or all of its built in plugins. * Although i am not sure how to solve it. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194642) * Oh – get rid of that theme! It’s awful! It not only registers its own (pretty old) copy of jQuery but it de-registers the copy of jQuery in WordPress core – thus breaking all kinds of core & plugin functionality. I had such a terrible time trying to troubleshoot a client’s site using this theme that I wrote [a post on the subject](http://quirm.net/2012/05/31/perils-of-using-older-versions-of-jquery/). * Thread Starter [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194655) * Unfortunately i cant really get ride of the theme at least not at the moment.

Not without completely re-writing the theme and removing its dependancy on an older version of jQuery. * Thread Starter [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194677) * Oh well thank you 🙂 At least i know were i stand now. * Thread Starter [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194679) * May this hold any answers: * // Register and load javascripts * ``` function t2t_register_js() { if (!is_admin()) { wp_deregister_script('jquery'); wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"), false, ''); wp_register_script('jquery-ui', get_template_directory_uri() .

That’s the offending code block. Note the `wp_deregister_script('jquery');`? That removes the jQuery bundles with core – thus impacting all kinds of plugins. I really think Themeforest should remove this theme altogether. * Thread Starter [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194681) * Anything i could do to fix it? Besides obviously removing that line. Although i fear that will cause problems else where. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194683) * Remove that line and the theme will likely fall over immediately as you’ll have 2 copies of jQuery conflicting with each other. To get it to work at all, you’d need to look at all the other scripts that are being enqueued and see if/how they can be hacked to work under the core jQuery. * Thread Starter [Wonx2150](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wonx2150/) * (@wonx2150) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-problem-6/#post-3194684) * Yer might be out of my depth now. But ill have a play around and try contacting the authors again.
