Description
Goal: to find what’s the current version of WordPress within /wp-admin
.
Tried:
- Lower-right corner tells me to get 4.1.
- The “WordPress Updates” page also tells me to upgrade to 4.1.
I expected that a normal user should be able to easily get this information.
P.S. Both manually visiting /wp-admin/about.php
or View Source worked, but a normal user would think of those.

Great, thanks, I didn’t think of that, the module must’ve been hidden. Anyway, I think it would be great if the current version is more prominent if there’s an update pending.

31046.diff is a proposed minimal wording change to indicate the current version and the available update.
For reference, the current strings are:
- Version %s (Up-to-date, or no permissions to update)
- You are using a development version (%s). Cool! Please <a>stay updated</a>.
- Get Version <a>%s</a>
