title: Initializing Materialize functions
body: <p>I am having trouble initializing some Materialize-css javascript functions; the one in particular is material_select().</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to initialize the function as stated in the Materialize docs:</p>
  
  <p><code>$(document).ready(function() {
      $('select').material_select();
    });</code></p>
  
  <p>However, I get the following error:
  <code>$(...).material_select is not a function</code></p>
  
  <p><code>material_select()</code> as well as any other Materialize function initializes if I manually write it into the browser console, but not if it's in the code; I am importing jQuery before materialize.js as well.</p>
  
  <p>Help is much appreciated, thank you.</p>
