  • The number you’re seeing is the time in seconds it took for the page to render. I don’t think WP has ever displayed the version number anywhere besides the admin panel, unless a site’s designer explicitly put it elsewhere.

    I’ve seen people get confused about this before. It’s kind of misleading. Personally I have never seen the point in having a random number appear on the page without anything to indicate what it means, that’s why I always set .credit to {display:none} in the CSS.

    It confused me the first time, too, but now that it is there I like it ‘cuz I can keep track of how the many includes are affecting page generation as some *really* slow things down (at this moment it is an atrocious 1 – 1.5 seconds). I added <?php echo $wp_version ?> so visitors would not be confused.
