XF 2.2 XF version info

[PaulProe]

Still trying to get familiar with XF. I was trying to find what version we are running and can't find a spot that lists version info, server info, etc like vB had. I did find this in the corner of the admin page:
but it adds confusion

1) Add-Ons is a hyperlink that goes to a dead page where they are trying to sell the domain "xenmade.com"

2) is the v2.2.8 the version number of the Add-Ons by xenMade.com or is it the version number of our install?

Who or what is xenMade.com?​

​

Does XF have a button that returns you back to the ACP homepage or do you have to manually enter the URL?​

​

Is there a spot the XF Version number is displayed?​

1) Add-Ons is a hyperlink that goes to a dead page where they are trying to sell the domain "xenmade.com"

That's from a third party add-on - nothing to do with XF core products.

2) is the v2.2.8 the version number of the Add-Ons by xenMade.com or is it the version number of our install?

The XF version.

Who or what is xenMade.com?

A third party add-on provider, whose add-ons you have installed.

Why they feel the need to add text to the ACP is beyond me.

And the location is weird. If you're going to do it, at least put it after the Xenforo info and not in the middle of it.

There are two different sections - one for the copyright, the other for the version, so they've just tacked their own text to the end of copyright.

Still a bad choice IMO.

Thanks for the update & info. There is a thread regarding removing the branding of xenMade. Not being familiar with the programs, I didn't realize the brand had been plugged into the incorrect position.

How do we know the version of a xenforo site? As a regular member

 

[Paul B]

Unless the admin of the site publishes it, you don't.

 

[htsumer]

Ok let me try to find that part

 

[Paul B]

There isn't an option/setting built in to do that.

The site admin would have to manually publish it - by editing a template, posting a thread, etc.

Okay, I got it. Thank you.

extra_copyright, So is there a variable? To avoid manual action in future version renewal

/admin.php?languages/tuerkce-tr.17/edit
Extra footer copyrightYou may use HTML

<br><a class="u-concealed" rel="dofollow" href="" target="_blank " title="test"><span> Version </span></a> <br />

 

[Paul B]

You can use {$xf.version} .

 

[htsumer]

Ooo you are great

 

[htsumer]

I'm sorry but the footer didn't work? or am i doing wrong

<br><a class="u-concealed" rel="dofollow" href="" target="_blank " title="test"><span> Version {$xf.version}</span></a> <br />

 

[Paul B]

It works fine for me.

you added the same place

 

[Paul B]

You have to edit the template directly.

You can't use the variable in the phrase.

Understood. We will make it directly from the template. Thank you
