Version Info missing in System Panel

[animaux]

Maybe more of a cosmetic issuse, since the second last update there is no more plugin version/update info in the panel:

[lukaskleinschmidt]

Thats odd. Which version do you have installed?

[animaux]

Current 2.1.0

Can't really replicate the issue right now. Tested it locally and live with Kirby 3 and 4. Do you have any additional infos?

Can you please try to install this package https://github.com/lukaskleinschmidt/kirby-laravel-vite. It uses the same "structure" composer wise. Just to see if versions are showing up there.

I have installed this simply by downloading the release and copying it into an almost untouched kirby v3 plainkit installation (not using composer). Doing that with the laravel extension yields the same result:

I have no idea how kirby plugings are structured, but looking at the composer.json files in your and the other extensions, there is no "version": -line in yours. Is that where the panel gets its information from?

[lukaskleinschmidt]

That seems to be the culprit here. It works fine if you install the package via composer.
But not if you download it or install it with git.

I actually removed the version (from most of my plugins) because of the reasons mentioned here:

Specifying the version yourself will most likely end up creating problems at some point due to human error.

Not sure the right course of action here. I like to keep things simple with my plugins. No custom actions for publishing releases that might be able to automatically update the composer.json. But I also get that not having the version in the panel might be an annoyance for some.

OK, I see, thanks for looking into this!

[lukaskleinschmidt]

I will keep this one open to see if I can find a fix for this at some point.

Tested it locally and live with Kirby 3 and 4.

BTW. So this plugin will work in Kirby 4 straight away? :)

[lukaskleinschmidt]

Yes, should work right out of the box
