Title: Problem loading jQuery hosted library Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Problem loading jQuery hosted library * Resolved [Teddy_c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teddy_c/) * (@teddy_c) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/) * Good Afternoon, * I have recently modified my entire theme by creating a child theme. I uploaded it and so far everything was working. My custom script were executing and the hosted jQuery library was loading. * However, I recently checked the check box enqueue safe version of jQuery in the itheme security pluging and ever since everything went wrong. So I decided to re-upload my back up files via an FTP client. Unfortunately it is not working. * The hosted version of jQuery is not loading. Instead of having “[https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js”](https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js”); loading I have “[http://www.thesofachronicle.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?616696”](http://www.thesofachronicle.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?616696”); and “[http://www.thesofachronicle.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery-migrate.min.js?616696”](http://www.thesofachronicle.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery-migrate.min.js?616696”); loading. I am stuck and I cannot find any answer. * PS: I also reuploaded a backup version of my htaccess file. * Here is my code that I use in the function.php file of my child theme. * ``` ``` Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398379) * try this: * ``` function jquery_register() { if ( !is_admin() ) { wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' ); wp_register_script( 'jquery', 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js'); wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' ); } } add_action( 'init', 'jquery_register' ); ``` * Thread Starter [Teddy_c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teddy_c/) * (@teddy_c) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398403) * Thank you, unfortunately it does not work.

Ever since I check and uncheck this box in itheme security it stopped working * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398425) * Have you checked with the “itheme” support? Ask if other people have similar complains, and if your theme is 4.2.4 compatible * Thread Starter [Teddy_c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teddy_c/) * (@teddy_c) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398509) * Problem fixed thanks to Dwiden. Please find his answer bellow: * ——— Solution ———- * Bug and you are using incorrect code in the functions.php file. If the Enqueue safe version of jQuery checkbox is still displayed and it is enabled please disable it and then click on the Save All Changes button. * Then in the functions.php file of your child theme change your code to look like this (perhaps best to do a copy\paste): * ``` function mytheme_jquery_script() { wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' ); wp_deregister_script( 'jquery-core' ); wp_register_script( 'jquery', 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js', array(), '2.1.4', false); wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' ); } ``` * add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘mytheme_jquery_script’); If you already have a method\function being added as an action to the wp_enqueue_scripts hook in the theme functions.php file you can add all lines starting with wp_ at the end of that method\function. The rest is then obsolete (because it is probably already there). * This should fix it. * In the Enqueue safe version of jQuery setting click on the ‘click here to check again.’ link to obtain the JQuery version being used and then refresh the iTSec plugin Settings page. It should now report in green: * Your current jQuery version is 2.1.4. * If the above info helped you solve the issue please mark this topic as ‘resolved’. * dwinden * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398520) * Glad to know it 🙂 Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Problem loading jQuery hosted library’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [javascript](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/javascript/) * [jquery](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/jquery/) * [wp_enqueue_script](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/wp_enqueue_script/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 7 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * Last activity: [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-loading-jquery-hosted-library/#post-6398520) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
