Description Subfader 2014-10-04 21:44:11 UTC 
jQuery 1.8.3 is old. How long to you want it to stay there?

Version 2 is a bit faster since it no more supports old IE versions.

But I guess MW wants to support old IE for the next 50 years so users will never see a reason to use a proper browser.
Comment 1 Subfader 2014-10-04 21:46:14 UTC 
And since MW uses old jQuery no extension develeoper can use new functions?
Comment 2 Bartosz Dziewoński 2014-10-05 00:34:54 UTC 
We use jQuery 1.11.1, which is the latest version of the 1.x branch. We're not going to drop IE 8 support anytime soon, but when we do, we'll switch to 2.x Please upgrade your MediaWiki installation if you're seeing an older version.
Comment 3 Subfader 2014-10-05 18:46:24 UTC 
\mediawiki-1.23.5\resources\lib\jquery\jquery.js reads v1.8.3

Is that the wrong spot?
Comment 4 Bartosz Dziewoński 2014-10-05 19:04:33 UTC 
jQuery was upgraded to 1.11 in MediaWiki 1.24 (or will be, as this version will be officially released in around two months).

Comment 5 Subfader 2014-10-06 13:23:05 UTC 
Ok thanks. I will replace it in the directory above and hope the plugins still run. Cos some my own jQuery stuff doesn't with 1.8.3.
