How to change the version of Jquery in wordpress?

Question

I am maintaining a plugin that uses version 1.4.1 of Jquery and runs on version 5.2 of Wordpess

jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=1.4.1:2 JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 1.4.1

And the latest Wordpress 5.6 uses version 3.3.2 of jquery .

jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=3.3.2:2 JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 3.3.2

How can I change from version 3.3.2 to 1.4.1 in Wordpress 5.6?

Note: I want to change the version to see if the plugin is breaking in version 5.6 because of Jquery .

Answer 1

The best in this case would even use the plugin jQuery Manager for Wordpress as already suggested. The advantages of this plugin are:

• You can choose a specific version of jQuery; Enable or Disable at any time with one click;
• And only runs on the front end of your site, it does not interfere in the core of Wordpress.
• Besides being open source, IE, you can contribute to improve it.

Remember to always keep a backup of your website in case of a problem.
