Are you looking for a way to load jQuery in the footer? This snippet makes the jQuery library load in the footer instead of the header.
Instructions:
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
function jquery_in_footer( &$scripts) {
if ( ! is_admin() )
$scripts->add_data( 'jquery', 'group', 1 );
}
add_action( 'wp_default_scripts', 'jquery_in_footer' );
