Neve and Neve Pro Addon Version Numbers Explained
This guide explains why the Neve theme and Neve Pro Addon show different version numbers and where you can check the correct version for each.
Neve Products and Versioning
Neve consists of two separate products: the Neve theme (the core theme) and the Neve Pro Addon (a plugin that unlocks premium features). Because they are independent products, they are developed and released on separate schedules — which means they each carry their own version number.
It is completely normal to see, for example, version 4.2.3 for the Neve theme and version 3.2.4 for the Neve Pro Addon at the same time. These numbers do not need to match, and a difference between them does not indicate a problem.
📝 Note: The Neve theme and Neve Pro Addon will never share the same version number. They follow independent release cycles, so the numbers will always differ. This is expected behavior.
Where to Check Each Version
Neve Theme Version
You can find the Neve theme version by navigating to Appearance > Themes in your WordPress dashboard and clicking on the Neve theme thumbnail.
Neve Pro Addon Version
The Neve Pro Addon is a plugin, so its version is listed alongside your other plugins:
- Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in your WordPress dashboard and locate Neve Pro Addon in the list. The version number appears directly below the plugin name.
What to Do if You See Different Version Numbers
If the version numbers for the Neve theme and Neve Pro Addon do not match, no corrective action is required — this is expected and normal.
The only thing worth checking is that both products are running their latest available versions. Keeping both up to date ensures you have the most recent features, compatibility improvements, and security fixes.
To update each product independently:
- Go to Dashboard > Updates in your WordPress dashboard.
- If an update is available for the Neve theme or the Neve Pro Addon, select it and apply the update.
Once both are on their latest versions, no further action is needed — even if the version numbers still differ from each other.
