    Determining Version Numbers

    It's really frustrating when you know that the version of Shadows is not 10.07 but yet that is what the admin tells you it is. I thought that something was going to be changed so we could see which version of Shadows is actually the install version AND have access to the latest version.

    For those who might not know, you can determine which version you are running if you do a View Source, then scroll toward the bottom of all that code and look for something like this:

    Code:
    mivaJS.ReadyThemeVersion = '2.01.00';
    If you are truly running version 10.07 that code will look like this

    Code:
    mivaJS.ReadyThemeVersion = '10.07.00';

      Good reminder. I still vote for not having the inactive version of the framework give the appearance that it has overwritten the current version or perhaps misleading the storeowner into thinking that are using the current version. I've had that happen a number of times, store owners tell me they are the latest version because that's what they see reported in the admin. Here's a visual for those who might not know what I'm trying to explain

      But this store does not have 10.07 as the active version, it's 2.01.00
