# [Plugin: Tweet Blender] Problem with jQuery

 * I am using the EasySlider from css-tricks.com on my site and all works fine but
   as soon as I enable TweetBlender the slider stops working. It just shows the 
   slides on top of each other vertically.
    I’m no expert but I know that the easyslider
   is using the latest jQuery 1.4.2 loaded from Google and that Tweet Blender is
   using the jQuery version that comes loaded with the plugin. I think that is what’s
   happening anyway? Is there a way to solve this? Thanks

 * [@snails07](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snails07/): I’ll check it out
   and get back to you within the next day or so.
 * One thing I’d suggest to try right away: if you manually initialize the slider
   then try to modify the call from `$("#slider").easySlider();` to `jQuery("#slider").
   easySlider();` i.e. replacing **$** alias with **jQuery**

 * Thanks for the quick reply. I was under the impression that WordPress had to 
   use $ instead of jquery.
    From memory I think I actually changed it from jquery
   to $ so that it would work, but in any case it didn’t fix the problem.
 * Thanks again
