Several years ago I wrote a script for store owners to be able to find out what software version thier store is using (https://support.americommerce.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360025950474-PUPT-Show-the-Version-of-the-AmeriCommerce-software-your-site-is-running-in-your-browsers-console), and I know there are multiple store owners using that script, but it occured to me, why is that info not available in the Admin Console?

  Agreed!

  In the meantime, you can also add a shortcut in chrome/edge with this javascript (a bookmarklet), this will pop up the version in a quick javascript alert in the browser when you would like to know and would have the side benefit of keeping the html out of your theme:

  javascript:(function()%7B(function()%7Bvar r %3D new XMLHttpRequest()%3Br.open("GET"%2C "%2Fstore%2Fsitemonitor.aspx"%2C true)%3Br.onreadystatechange %3D function () %7Bif (r.readyState !%3D 4 %7C%7C r.status !%3D 200) return%3Bvar data %3D r.responseText.split("%26")%3Bvar obj %3D %7B%7D%3Bfor(var i %3D0%2C l%3Ddata.length%3B i < l%3B i%2B%2B)%7Bvar key %3D data%5Bi%5D.split("%3D")%5B0%5D%3Bvar val %3D data%5Bi%5D.split("%3D")%5B1%5D%3Bobj%5Bkey%5D %3D val%3B%7Dalert("Version%3A " %2B obj%5B"Code Version"%5D)%3B%7D%3Br.send()%3B%7D)()%7D)()
