WordPress is the most popular and frequently updated source code. With each new release, this CMS adds new features as well as greater performance and security. Therefore, make sure your website runs on the latest version.
Besides, WordPress version also affects certain compatibility for themes and plugins.
Here I will show you some easy ways to check:
Method 1: You go to the admin page => Tools => System Check => Information
By the way, I also briefly introduce this System Check:
- WordPress: where you will know what version is, URL, …
- Folder and font size: specify how large the system folder is for each file
- Active interface: show what theme the web is using
- Unused skins: indicates how many themes are available
- Plugin not activated
- Media handling: what editor, max upload size, etc.
- Servers, Databases, Constants you can study more
- File system permissions: this is also an important item, it gives you access rights
+ WordPress home directory is writable.
+ wp-content folder: writable.
+ Upload folder: writable.
+ Plugin directory: writable.
+ Interface folder: writable.
Method 2: Open your website in a web browser. Right-click anywhere on the web page and select View Page Source. A new tab will open containing the HTML code of the page.
Here you will see a meta tag containing the version:
<meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress 5.7.2″>
