I'm facing a problem with conflicting jQuery and Bootstrap files in my header.php code. Whenever I include the jQuery file before the bootstrap.js file, it causes issues with the tabs on my website where clicking on them does not navigate me to the correct pages.
I suspect that there is a conflict between jQuery and Bootstrap in my setup. Below is a snippet of my header.php for reference:
header.php
<?php require_once "essentials.php";
//error_reporting(~0);
//ini_set('display_errors', 1);
?>

</div>
</div>
</body>
<script>
$.noConflict();
$(document).ready(function (){
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown();
$('#userlogin').dropdown('toggle');
});
</script>
Could someone please assist me in resolving this issue and suggest a proper way to load all the CSS and JS files to prevent any conflicts on the webpage?
Thank you
