Hi Hive,
We have a 3rd party web dev company working with us, and we have just implemented and are almost ready to go live with TNEW v7. They are having a conflict with Jquery and our Word Press Site. We are looking for others that use v7 and Wordpress, so that they can communicate and trouble shoot the conflict. They were told by Tessitura that they need to remove the jquery references. This is affecting our editing tool ability and our SYOS map. Can someone reach out to me so that I can put you in touch?Thanks,

Hi all, While it may be possible to implement another version of Jquery, we have intentionally not recommended or allowed this due to security and performance concerns. With TNEW v7, we take full responsibility for security scans and ensuring the software is delivered in a secure fashion. If we allow organizations to bring their own version of JQuery, then as vulnerabilities are uncovered, we need to reach out to and rely upon each organization individually to update their template versions of JQuery rather than being able to update it ourselves to ensure security gaps are closed.
Another consideration is performance - we are trying to deliver v7 as performant as possible, and running two versions of Jquery is heavy (over 500KB if unzipped or minified / 50KB zipped and minified), so including both versions can have a performance impact particularly on mobile devices.
As a result of the above loading a separate version of Jquery in your TNEW template is not a supported configuration at this time.
