Issues with New jQuery

directive

Are there plans to update some of your old templates (such as Businessline, which we are using for several clients) to be compatible with new versions of jQuery / Wordpress? This is causing issues with the sites themselves, as well as making them effectively insecure.

Hi directive,
Yes, some the templates have conflict with the jQuery of WP 5.7+.
At the moment, To resolve this issue you can disable the Enable jQuery Migrate Helper plugin then add the following code to the
wp-content/themes/s5_theme/vertex/cms_core_functions.php file (under line: 54)

if (!is_admin()) add_action("wp_enqueue_scripts", "my_jquery_enqueue", 11);
function my_jquery_enqueue() {
   wp_deregister_script('jquery');
   wp_register_script('jquery', get_template_directory_uri()."/js/jquery/jquery.min.js", false, null);
   wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

We will discuss with the technical team the updated plan for the themes.
