jquery not working with wordpress?

Script is actually quite simple:

jQuery(document).ready(function()
{
    setTimeout( function()
    {
        jQuery('.menu-header').fadeOut();
    }, 2000);
});

And should show menu after everything is loaded... And it works! But not with wordpress.. Also I know, that we should use jQuery insted of $. In my functions.php I add jquery:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', 'load_jquery' );
function load_jquery() 
{
    wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
}

But this script is not working at all...

Any suggestions?

Your script is not running in no Conflict mode.

The jQuery library included with WordPress is set to the noConflict() mode (see wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js). This is to prevent compatibility problems with other JavaScript libraries that WordPress can link.

In the noConflict() mode, the global $ shortcut for jQuery is not available.

Solution :

var $j = jQuery;

$j(document).ready(function(){
setTimeout(function(){
    $j('.menu-header').fadeOut();}, 2000);
});

If anyone will have a similar problem as mine, there is solution. All others said true. Thing is jQuery has been add later, then I call script. So... add code to the footer.php and it will be fine :D

Without any modifications at header or functions, just add to footer.php this:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    setTimeout(function(){
    jQuery('.menu-header').fadeIn();}, 3000);
});

However, I would like to say thank you all who tryied to help me. This forum is the best, and all of you are amazing!

Thank you!

I think this reads easier...

     <?php
     function custom_load_jquery() {
     ?>
     <script type="text/javascript">
          jQuery(document).ready(function(){
               setTimeout(function(){
                    jQuery('.menu-header').fadeOut(2000);
               }
          });
     </script>
     <?php
     }

     add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', 'custom_load_jquery' );
     ?>

and wp_enqueue_script should be the correct place to load up the jQuery code... I'm not totally sure "load_jquery" isn't already in use, better to customize it. Also, do you have the fadeOut function correct? Check my recent edit...
