The current version of WordPress is 6.7.1. What version is your site running?
Why should I care what version?
WordPress is updated frequently, often with fixes for security problems. Lots of websites use WordPress so any security vulnerabilities make it a juicy target for bad guys.
One of the best things you can do for the security of your site is make sure you are running the latest version of WordPress.
If I have the latest version of WordPress, is my site secure?
It's a good start, but you should also check you have the latest versions of plugins and themes you use. It's wise to remove any plugins and themes you don't need. Use strong passwords for your WordPress admin login and web hosting account.
How does it work?
We connect to your website and check a few places that tell us the version number. Sometimes the information is hidden and we have to dig a bit deeper to find it. Sometimes we can't find it. Going forward, we will add more ways to find the version of WordPress on your website.
Why does it say it can't tell what version of WordPress my site is running?
Sometimes we just can't find the information or something is blocking us from accessing your site. We'd love your feedback so we can look in to it and improve this tool!
