Was getting a missing function error for the $, and it was creating a conflict with another plugin. As I understand it, when using jQuery in WordPress, best practice is to always use the jQuery function instead of the $. Updated this file (the source of the error) and everything is peachy. It would be great to have this change rolled into the plug-in, so that I don’t have to keep making it after each update.

Also, I hope I’m going about this the correct way. I got followed the instructions from the plugin website (I think). I’ve never use git for collaboration, so if I did this wrong, please feel free to correct me, it won’t hurt my feelings at all.

If it matters, in my case (and at least one other user’s case), it specifically was preventing the Co-Authors Plus plugin from writing the author selection UI to the Authors metabox. See this forum post for details: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-select-change-author-in-add-new-post/#post-11133237

It would be great if someone would merge this PR. It’s been sitting here for 4 months, and it fixes an issue that’s breaking functionality in other plugins.
