I don’t see my version of WordPress in my source code. I searched for “”generator” content=”WordPress” and only found it without the version. Where do you find the version?

Thanks so much!

Is there a file within WordPress that contains the WP version, which WordPress reads each time you log in to the backoffice of your blog?

Recent version of WP will include the metadata line even if you remove it from your theme header.php. You may edit the code, or disable that action in your function.php file in the theme directory.

remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘wp_generator’);

should work.

WP 2.0.7 is the essential security upgrade for everyone. WordPress 2.1 is the new version which I will get once the bugs are gone in and my plugins become compatible. Should happen in the next few days…
