## Beschreibung

**Version Info Admin Bar** adds a small, unobtrusive menu to the WordPress top admin
bar that shows, at a glance:

 * The current PHP version running on the server
 * The current WordPress version
 * The version number of any plugin you choose to track

This is especially useful for developers, agencies, and site maintainers who manage
multiple WordPress installations and want a fast way to check environment details
without digging through Site Health or the Plugins screen.

#### Key Features

 * Adds a „Versions“ menu to the admin bar, visible only to administrators
 * Displays PHP version and WordPress version instantly
 * Lets each administrator pick which plugins should show their version number
 * Per-user settings — different administrators can track different plugins
 * Lightweight: no database bloat, no external requests, no tracking
 * Clean uninstall — nothing is left behind beyond standard user meta

#### Why use this plugin?

When you manage several WordPress sites, quickly confirming the PHP version or checking
whether a critical plugin is up to date can save valuable time, especially before
troubleshooting or applying updates. Version Info Admin Bar puts that information
exactly where you already are: the admin bar, on every screen.

## FAQ

### Who can see the version information?

Only logged-in users with the `manage_options` capability (administrators) can see
the „Versions“ menu and access the settings page.

### Can different administrators track different plugins?

Yes. Plugin selection is stored per user, so each administrator can choose their
own set of plugins to monitor.

### Does this plugin slow down my site?

No. The plugin only runs in the admin area and admin bar, and it does not make any
external requests or add anything to the front end for regular visitors.

### Does this plugin collect any data or phone home?

No. All data (your plugin selections) stays in your own WordPress database as user
meta. Nothing is sent to any external server.

### Will this work with my theme?

Yes. The plugin only adds items to the standard WordPress admin bar and does not
modify your theme.
