About page still says 4.7.5 after update to 4.8

    I have upgraded both my staging site and production site from version 4.7.5 to 4.8 but after the update, the about page still says version 4.7.5 and that I still need to update to the latest version.

    I checked the version file in the wp-includes folder, and it is indeed saying version 4.8.

    I have manually downloaded version 4.8, and uploaded the files via FTP, and it still says I need to update to version 4.8. I have also cleared my browser cache, and disabled caching from Cloudflare.

    Any idea why this is persisting?

    Have you tried:
    – Flushing any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server and/or browser caches. Not just your browser, but any op cache or content network cache as well such as Cloudflare. If you are using SiteLock, manage your caching there.
    – Flushing Managed host caches. Managed WP hosting often has special caches. If your host has a “Purge Varnish” or “Flush Memcache” tool, try that. You can ask your provider to flush memcache and Varnish for you if necessary.

    Had the host reboot the server. That seemed to fix it.
