A widgetized plugin that puts an image rotator on your theme in any sidebar. You can choose from three different transitions: linear, loop, and fade. In the widget settings you have the ability to set the transition speed, apply nofollow if linked, open links in a new window, upload/select images to add to the Image Rotator, and to drag & drop to reorder the order you want the images to appear. Or you can set randomize and each time the widget loads it will start with a random image and work its way through your array. Watch the video below for a short demonstration of workflow.

This plugin updates <a href="http://jquery.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">jQuery</a> to the latest official stable version, which is most likely not available within the latest stable release of WordPress. 
jQuery Migrate is also included for backwards compatibility.
No files are replaced, therefore deactivation of this plugin returns your site to it`s original state.
Since WordPress 5.6 includes an up-to-date version of jQuery 3, upgrading shouldn’t`t be necessary in most cases.
Warning
If you are not familiar with beta testing, bugfixing, javascript or running bleeding edge software it`s not recommended. 
I will not provide help on JavaScript and jQuery, only on plugin related issues (PHP)!
Reporting problems
Please post bug reports and request for help on <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jquery-updater" rel="ugc">WordPress.org Support Forums</a>.
If you run into any bugs, turning this plugin off will fully deactivate everything.
Work in Progress
