WordPress – WP Tab Widget Broken Fix

Since the WordPress update to version 4.5, you may have noticed that your WP Tab Widget may not be working.

There is an update coming out soon to fix this, however, in the meantime for a quick fix, you can add the following code to your themes “function.php” file:

 if (!is_admin()) {  
     wp_deregister_script('jquery');  
     wp_register_script('jquery', ("https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"), false, '1.11.3');  
     wp_enqueue_script('jquery');  
 }

This will now enable your WP Tab Widget to start working again.
