Hi:
The correct Gantry template version is not showing in Template Manager / Edit Style -> Overview.
i.e. I have Gantry Template v4.1.7 installed, but in Template Manager / Edit Style -> Overview it shows Gantry v4.0.
PS: The correct template version is in the templateDetails.xml file.
Screen dump is below:-

I will report this to our devs although I have to admit that I don't see a reason why this should even be an issue
Gantry 4.0 that is mentioned in the center of the screen is just title which tells you that you are using 4th version of the Gantry framework template (so you don't mix it with previous version) and since this is static text devs didn't decide to change it with every gantry update. I suspect I will get the same reply from our devs and since this really doesn't change anything, I believe this won't be changed at all and we will spend their time on totally unimportant thing

Thanks for the prompt response and for reporting it to the Devs.
While not a big issue, all RocketTheme Gantry templates show the full version number from the templateDetails.xml file on the Overview screen, so I think it's just a simple oversight with this template.
Also, how else are you to easily know what version of the template you have installed ? as template updates do not show up under Joomla! [Extensions] -> [Extension manager] -> [Update], whereas Gantry Framework updates do.

Joomla Extension Manager Update said there was an update for Gantry to version 4.1.8. I clicked Install, and the screen reported that it had installed the template (and a couple of other files). The listing for updates refreshed without Gantry showing, just as I'd expect.
However, when I go to Manage Extensions, Gantry version displays as its old value: 3.2.20. And templateDetails.xml for Gantry says 3.2.20 also.
I've had the same experience on three sites, all running Joomla 2.5.9. Gantry is no longer listed in Extension Manager: Update.
Any advice? I want to be able to see that the template has updated.
Thanks,
Jim
