Quick and Easy
by Michael Kraus·4 years ago

I maintain a lot of websites and it is nice to know what version of PHP is running at a glance. I normally install this or a similar plugin to display the PHP and MySQL versions on the dashboard. With recent release of 8.0 PHP it is a quick way to review the current version and plan upgrades or identify sites that need a PHP upgrade.

While the plugin only displays the versions of PHP and MySQL, it would be awesome to expand the plugin to track versions across multiple sites or incorporate other critical version numbers.
