What you need is, just copy and paste the following code into your functions.php file.
function jquery_from_google_cdn() { if (!is_admin()) { wp_deregister_script('jquery'); wp_register_script('jquery', '//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js', false, '1.11.1'); wp_enqueue_script('jquery'); } } add_action('init', 'jquery_from_google_cdn');
