Thanks @merefield - the version check server needed some tweaks to understand the new -dev suffix on tests-passed version numbers. Should be working now: [7] pry(main)> Discourse::VERSION::STRING => "3.2.0.beta1-dev" [8] pry(main)> DiscourseHub.discourse_version_check => {"success"=>"OK", "latestVersion"=>"3.1.0.beta7", "criticalUpdates"=>false, "missingVersionsCount"=>0}

[image] David Taylor: [7] pry(main)> Discourse::VERSION::STRING => "3.2.0.beta1-dev" [8] pry(main)> DiscourseHub.discourse_version_check => {"success"=>"OK", "latestVersion"=>"3.1.0.beta7" But the latest version is not 3.1.0 beta7 right? The server is still returning 3.0.6 for latest stable as well.

Wow yup, you’re absolutely right. The issue with understanding the -dev suffix meant that the server didn’t pick up last-week’s releases from GitHub :facepalm:. Thanks @RGJ! On a tests-passed instance now: [1] pry(main)> DiscourseHub.discourse_version_check => {"success"=>"OK", "latestVersion"=>"3.1.0.beta8", "criticalUpdates"=>false, "missingVersionsCount"=>1, "versions"=> [{"version"=>"3.1.0.beta8", "releasedAt"=>"2023-08-01T08:59:00.000Z", "critical"=>false, "notes"=>"Read about the release here:\r\n\r\nhttps://meta.discourse.org/t/273443", "url"=>"http://www.discourse.org/pricing"}]} 3.1.0 is also present in the version-check server now, so stable should be good as well.
