    @jdaviescoates I gotta be honest, I don’t know why it NEEDS to be in the footer. While I didn’t care it was there, I also don’t care that it’s been moved. Lol. I wonder if this is just one of those changes that isn’t liked at first but we come to see it as making sense / understand the design choice in the future. Most software keeps the versions hidden and viewable only by admins, so this to me makes logical sense as far as design goes.

    @d19dotca I wouldn't say it NEEDS to be there either. I just liked it being there as a really quick and easy way to see what version I'm running. And I don't really get why it was removed without anyone asking for it to be removed (indeed, it was seemingly paradoxically removed because someone wanted to be able to easily see it, but hadn't even noticed it was there! 😛 )

      For me it doesn't need to be in the footer, I prefer to have only the custom footer down there.

      Version is only interesting for admins, the less clutter the better. (At the same time, I could totally live with it down there. 😀 )

            We looked into many of the apps we have and most don't show the version in the footer. I guess the expectation is to find it somewhere else. So, we just moved it. We do keep getting repeated emails that they don't know what version the Cloudron is since they don't look into the footer (it's natural for me, but I guess it's not for others).

                @jdaviescoates Currently, the footer is just a free flowing markdown. I guess we have to template it to have something like {{version}} or %version% or something. Have to see how easy/hard this is.

                  @jdaviescoates I noticed now that we have 2020 hardcoed as the default footer. So we probably want to have some templating since 2021 is almost here...

                    @girish I've got custom markdown in mine (which displays in the centre at the bottom). There is no 2020 to be seen. But I still miss having the version over in the right 🙂

                      @jdaviescoates what I meant is that we need templating for the default footer, so will look into adding version at that point.

                        Five now, we already have a "Footer" section to change the footer text, a checkbox for "Add version number" isn't too crazy I think for those of us that liked it (I did personally).
