Best plugin for PHP version
Great option for quickly finding out which PHP version is being used. Thank you for coding it. This topic was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by Gabriel Reguly. This topic was modi
A plugin to show a php version, really?
This is such a waste of bytes I don’t know where to begin. create a file info.php containing <?php phpinfo(); and open it in your favorite browser. Seriously have you all gone plugin mad?
Great
Lightwight, simple, awesome.
WP-ServerInfo Reviews
Menu does not display
WP 6.2.2 and PHP 8.1. After installed, don’t know how to access the plugin, the Menu link does not display anywhere.
5/5 – This does exactly what it says and nothing more
Great plugin! This is a lot better than just leaving a phpinfo.php file on a site that’s easy to forget about. Thanks for making this!
Très bonne Application
Simple et efficace Et la version Pro est Nickel Merci
