What version info via database?

  • Is there a way to find the version number from the database? My server files were deleted, and I’d like to restore to the same version, for now. Thanks.

  • sort of, wp-includes/version.php contains 2 lines ..

    one outputs the wordpress version, one holds a number that gets inserted into the database.

    for instance, inside the 2.2 version.php you’ll see:

    $wp_version = '2.2';
$wp_db_version = 5183;

    Inside the 2.0.10 file you’ll see:

    $wp_version = '2.0.10';
$wp_db_version = 3441;

    If you go into your database and run a simple query on your options table you can find the second number:

    SELECT *
FROM 'YOUR_options'
WHERE 'option_name' = "db_version";

    then you just need to go through the version.phps to find that number.
