Essential Plugin for PHP Version Display
Display PHP Version is a lightweight WordPress plugin designed to enhance the user experience by displaying the current PHP and MySQL versions directly in the admin dashboard. It integrates seamlessly into the 'At a Glance' widget, making it easy for users to access this vital information without unnecessary clutter. The latest version introduces a hover feature that reveals the MySQL version, which is useful yet unobtrusive, catering to the varying needs of users who may prioritize PHP version visibility.
This plugin is particularly beneficial for developers and site administrators who require quick access to version information for troubleshooting or optimization purposes. The design choice to omit certain prefixes for MySQL versions on Windows servers demonstrates a focus on user convenience. As a free tool, it supports open-source contributions, making it an excellent addition to any WordPress site looking for streamlined performance monitoring.
