   Hello Folks:

   This kills me. Sometimes I feel just plain dumb.

   How can I find out what version of WordPress I am currently using?

   I think it is 2.8.1 but how to verify.

   Thank you,

   Riley West

   rwestpnw,

   I'm sure there is an easier way to tell, but I typically check wp-includes > version.php and look for the following line:

   $wp_version = '2.8.4';

   This information should be written in the footer of your admin panel as well, but in our case it has been removed.

   What do you mean wp-includes>version.php?

   Am I supposed to enter those letters somewhere? If so, where?

   wp-includes is one of your WordPress folders, version.php (file in it) has the version number in it. You can also use your browser and "View >> Page Source.

   Or it should also be in your Dashboard when you log in.
