My django admin was working fine, but now jquery wont load for the datepickers etc. The browser console show the error "$" is not a function. This started after I had installed and then uninstalled the grappelli library. My admin files are on S3 so i deleted them all and ran collectstatic again, but this did not help. I also cleared the browser cache to be sure. Really have no idea how to solve this one - any help would be appreciated.
I'm on django 1.8.5
The issue turned out to be that grappelli on installation, overwrote the jquery and related files of the admin. My admin files are on S3/Cloudfront so I had to run collectstatic again after uninstalling grappelli and also invalidate the cloudfront cache of the admin. Grappelli turned out to be a very painful experience...
