Version Info

This plugin displays the current WordPress version number along with the following environment in the admin footer:

• Current WordPress version info, if there is an update available it displays the current and latest versions side by side
• PHP version
• Web Server used
• MySQL version

What’s the reason for building this Plugin

I always disliked the fact that WordPress does not display the current version number in the footer whenever there is a new release.

If you are a plugin developer and a user experiences a problem, they could install this plugin and send you a screenshot of their admin footer (or copy the text of course) to inform you about the cornerstones of their setup.
