First, it sounds like you might be on an earlier version of DNN.  It is very important that you upgrade DNN if any upgrade exists.  It not only helps with performance, new features, and more - but it also helps update libraries and other things like this that have a massive impact on how you can protect your website while keeping the underlying technologies updated.   

It's been a while since I've personally reset this, but I believe that you can't just change the original one.  Instead, create another entry for the higher version number. 

DNN should opt for and load the higher version option, but extensions that need to load a lower version can do so (but only if they know to do it and specify the version number).  

Thanks for your response Will,

I do not want to upgrade DNN at this time.  I read that you can update the cdn to a custom one under extensions-javascript libraries - this dosnt seem to work.  I have minification and composite files turned off at the moment to test loading of jQuery.  It is being loaded from resources/libraries/jQuery-UI/01_12_01.  Where does it set this at? Or is there anything I could modify in the dnn:jQuery skin control?

My previous response agreed that you can't just change the path and the correct version is used.  You need to create another reference. :) 

What i ended up doing was just putting jquery ui 1.13 in folder named 01.12.01 and it worked.

Bad idea. It will be gone with the next upgrade.

Happy DNNing!
