OK So I finally got jquery loaded for my site, but I'm still confused as to how do I load an actual plugin. For instance, I just downloaded the slidebar jquery plugin (http://plugins.adchsm.me/slidebars/). When I download it there are the following files:
slidebars.css
slidebars.js
slidebars.min.css
slidebars.min.js
slidebars.jquery.json
So now what do I do with all those files? I didn't see an html file or anything like that. Do I have to compile a separate .js file and reference them all in there or what? Sorry, I'm a complete noob here and I'm sure this is something simple.
