When looking at the list of modules on the extensions page in DNN 9.8, the Upgrade column frequently does not match the Version column. But when I look up these "core" modules on GitHub, the latest version there matches what is in the Version column. Where does DNN get the information that it displays in the Upgrade column?

For example, the Account Login module shows version 9.8.0 and shows upgrade 10.0.4.

Another example, the IFrame module shows version 8.1.3 and shows upgrade 9.1.0.

The old Store module collection shows version 4.0.2 and shows upgrade 5.1.3.

There are other older "core" modules that are available on GitHub that show similar version discrepancies. Why doesn't the Upgrade column match what is on GitHub?

Thanks,

Don't worry - the upgrade column has some issues, and not everything there must be true...

Happy DNNing!
