 * im haveing the same bug as here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/request-button-does-not-work/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/request-button-does-not-work/)
 * “I’ve created a user account and assigned a Patron ID to it. Using that account,
   I could see the Request button beside the books, when holdbutton value is set
   to true.
 * But I can seem to make it work. When I click it, nothing happens. The book doesn’t
   go Hold in the Dashboard. while inspecting the Resources, there was an error.
   It said: “ReferenceError: Can’t find variable: jQuery” and it referred to the
   line 40 in Scripts/front.js. Hope this clears anything for you.”
 * i have more info when i click on the button i get this extra error:
 *     ```
       Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
           at PlaceHold (front.js?ver=3.5.3:12)
           at HTMLInputElement.onclick (?searchby=title&searchbox&weblib_orderby=barcode&weblib_order=ASC&barcode=0000000000000002:113)
       PlaceHold @ front.js?ver=3.5.3:12
       onclick @ ?searchby=title&searchbox&weblib_orderby=barcode&weblib_order=ASC&barcode=0000000000000002:113
       ```
   
 * here is a screenshot:

 * also, i have no errors on my Apache log i have tested the button on chrome browser
   and Microsoft Edge. i also tested by changing permalink setting.
 * Here is my setup info:
 *     ```

       Product: Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 Update #52

 * Hmmm… Sounds like the default WordPress theme (Twenty Nineteen) is causing something
   odd to happen with loading the jQuery code…

 * Ok, it looks like my code is not queuing up a load of jQuery and I have been 
   getting away with that becuase most themes are already loading jQuery. Thedefault
   theme does not seem to load jQuery…
 * I just pushed a new version which should load jQuery if it not otherwise being
   loaded.

   should fix it.

 * I found a theme named Avata, and the request buttom works just fine with it (
   using the current version of WebLibrarian).

 * caezrs:
 * I cannot replicate your problem on my server(server os CentOS 6, PHP 7.1, WP 
   5.2.2, Weblibrarian 3.5.5).
 * What server os are you using? What version?
    What version of PHP, WordPress, 
   and Weblibrarian do you have installed on your server? Does the browser you are
   using support JavaScript? Is JavaScript enabled? Are Cookies enabled?
