Versionless Plugin?

I recently ran the plugin named Check Installed Plugins Against the Store (which itself was ver.3.1) and was surprised that one of my installed plugins, called Keyword Update, was returned with a Status of F. No Version.

Please would you let me know if it is one I should no longer be using, or whether it is OK and perhaps not actually subject to being updated? I actually found it very helpful a short while ago, and was grateful to the author for creating it, as it solved a problem I had with my data after updating to FH version 7 from 6.

If you check in the Plugin Store, you will see that it is still a live plugin that has been updated only recently. It's worth downloading the latest version manually, but I'm not sure why the Check Installed Plugins plugin didn't find the current version.

There is a published Keyword Update plugin in the Plugin Store at V1.5 designed to work in FH V5, V6 & V7.

In Tools > Plugins... if you select that Keyword Update plugin what Version: number and Last updated: date does it display?

When I run Check Installed Plugins Against the Store it also says No Version.

It is caused by no space between Version: and the number in the Keyword Update plugin.
i.e. Version:1.5 is wrong ~ Version: 1.5 is correct!

Or you could say it is a bug in the Check Installed Plugins Against the Store plugin.

Thanks to both Mark and Mike.

I looked it up under my Tools >Plugins menu as suggested and indeed it is Version: 1.5

The Last Updated also shows with a 'no space' config for the date, which is shown as 08Feb2021
Other plugins seem to have spaced dates, like 03 Dec 2020 and so on.
