Why $ for jquery doesn't work?
<p>I used the following to enqueue jquery plugins:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php
    function my_scripts_method() {
        wp_enqueue_script(
            'custom functions',
            get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/main.js',
            array('jquery'),
            '1',
            true
        );
        wp_enqueue_script(
            'dotdotdot &amp; lightbox',
            get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/plugins.js',
            array('jquery'),
            '1',
            true
        );
    }
    add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method');
</code></pre>

<p>And I don't know it it's related but jquery only responds to calling <code>jquery(...</code> and not <code>$(...</code>. Why is that?</p>
