broni Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Not sure what you're saying.For instance...The latest version for us is 4.0.11 but I was just using "Search" here and I see that if defaults to "Date" which would indicate that we're dealing here with 4.0.12 version.If that's the case there is no way for me to know which version is being used here.

broni Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Thank you Could the version number be listed at the bottom of main page like I have it on my site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean West Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I think it's a better security measure not to list the version number on the site footer for just anyone to see - as security patches are released a site admin may be traveling and can't instantly update the site. It's an open invitation to exploit vulnerabilities to a site that has not been updated / patched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
