Doesn’t affect the wp-login page

    Added this plugin to my website and it worked for all pages except the /wp-login page which is still loading the old jquery included with WordPress. This prevents me from passing PCI compliance which was the whole point of installing the plugin.

    hello
    can you explain what my plugin has to do with PCI compliance?
    does it have to do with old jQuery versions?

    Yes, WordPress currently uses jquery 1.12.4 which is not PCI compliant. The jQuery Updater plugin successfully updated the jquery version on all of my website’s pages except for the /wp-login page. That page is checked during the PCI compliance auto scans and so my website still fails the scan.

    I’m not sure that your plugin is expected to update the jquery version on that page so I’m not necessarily saying anything is wrong but figured I would post that info for others who may have been interested in your plugin for PCI compliance reasons.

    I also hoped that you may know more info about affecting the jquery version on that page. Like perhaps it is similar to the admin jquery, which as far as I’m aware should absolutely not be changed, or maybe it is simple enough for your plugin to change that page after all.

    to do this i only need to add 1 or 2 lines of code so it won`t be difficult

    Awesome, we have switched tactics for achieving PCI compliance but if your changes work and don’t negatively affect the login page then I would be interested to know of that update to the plugin.

    Any news about that? I have the same issue with a PCI compliant software.

    i released version 3.4.1.1 with this fix

    Thanks Ramoonus for the quick reply.
    Could I know what you changed, please? Does the login page run the latest version of Jquery too? I ask that because I’d like to know if your last fix can have negative affect on the website. Thank you in advance.

    I`ve added a bit of code to also enqueue the jquery script during the wp-login page
