Our analysis
AI-assistedWP jQuery Plus is a WordPress plugin that enhances the loading of jQuery by using a Content Delivery Network (CDN). It loads jQuery and jQuery Migrate from a CDN while ensuring a fallback to the local version if the CDN is unavailable. The plugin automatically synchronises with the version of jQuery used by WordPress, helping to maintain compatibility.
This plugin is suitable for WordPress users who want to improve their site's performance by leveraging CDN for jQuery, particularly those who are concerned about loading speeds and version consistency.
Best for: WordPress users looking to optimise jQuery loading for improved site performance.
What it does well
- ✓Loads jQuery from a CDN for speed benefits
- ✓Provides a fallback to local jQuery if CDN is down
- ✓Automatically uses the same jQuery version as WordPress
Where it falls short
- •Limited information on additional features or settings
- •Last updated in July 2015, which may affect compatibility with newer WordPress versions
Verdict
WP jQuery Plus can be a useful tool for enhancing jQuery loading on your WordPress site, though its age may limit compatibility with the latest WordPress updates.
From the developer
Zach Schnackel's own description of WP jQuery Plus, lightly tidied.
Get the speed benefits of loading jQuery (and jQuery Migrate) from a CDN while providing a fallback to the local version in the event the CDN is down. It also uses the same version as WordPress does – automagically, so you’re never out of sync.
Loading jQuery from cdnjs
By default, jQuery is loaded from Google with jQuery Migrate being loaded from cdnjs. If you’d like to also load jQuery from cdnjs, add the following to wp-config.php
define('WPJP_USE_CDNJS', true);
