TypeError: $ is not a function when calling jQuery function

Question

I have a simple jQuery script in a WordPress plugin that is using a jQuery wrapper like this:

$(document).ready(function(){

    // jQuery code is in here

}         


        

Answer 1

This solution worked for me

;(function($){
    // your code
})(jQuery);

Move your code inside the closure and use $ instead of jQuery
