    jQuery 1.x is no longer supported and WP is expected to move to 3.x soon. I tried running WPDT with 3.2.1 normal and slim, noconflict() mode or not and got a load of errors in every case. Perhaps you want to start looking into that.

    bootstrap.js v3.3.7, which WPDT loads, should be compatible with jQuery 3.x, so I take it there are other scripts causing troubles.

    Hi maevapn,
    Thank you for your purchase.

    We are using wordpress built in jquery library. When they decide to change it we will make a update but we think is too early moving to 2.x or 3.x, because people still use IE6,7,8 which is only supported on 1.x.

    There are many, many themes and plugins using jQuery as loaded by WP core. Every time jQuery is updated, there is a risk of older themes and plugins breaking (because lots of them are still used but no longer updated)

    Kind Regards, 

    Isidora Markovic
