Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function when using a jQuery plugin in Wordpress

Question

This is my script:

 $( "#top" ).click(function() {
  $( "#mid" ).slideDown( "slow", function() {
    // Animation complete.
  });

});

When I run the script website and receive this error does not work.

jQuery is included with WordPress by default in no-conflict mode. In noConflict() mode, the global $ shortcut for jQuery is not available, so you need to use:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    // Inside of this function, $() will work as an alias for jQuery()
    // and other libraries also using $ will not be accessible under this shortcut

    $( "#top" ).click(function() {
      // etc.
    });
});

What do you mean it "doesn't work"? What error are you getting now? – rnevius Feb 15 '15 at 09:11
Unexpected Token at line 7 "}"..I tried to brace it does not work – Ovidiu Andrei Feb 15 '15 at 09:14
You're missing an opening brace `{`. This is a different question. Please close up this one, and ask another if you're still experiencing the problem after fixing the syntax error. – rnevius Feb 15 '15 at 09:15
