 * Hello,
 * As a security measure, our site hides the version of WordPress we are running.
   The AddThis plugin, however, reveals it in its script. Can this be removed or
   changed or hidden?
 * Thanks,
    Bill

    var addthis_plugin_info = {“info_status”:”enabled”,”

 * Appreciate the effort on this issue with ver. 5.3.4, however, the issue remains.
   This appears in source:
 *  <!– AddThis Settings Begin –>
    <script data-cfasync=”false” type=”text/javascript”
   > var addthis_product = “wpp-5.3.4”; var wp_product_version = “wpp-5.3.4”; var
   wp_blog_version = “4.7.1”; var addthis_plugin_info = {“info_status”:”enabled”,”
   cms_name”:”WordPress”,”plugin_name”:”Share Buttons by AddThis”,”plugin_version”:”
   5.3.4″,”anonymous_profile_id”:”wp-c4466480278af0d40dab22bfd85e3be8″,”php_version”:”
   5.3.3″,”cms_version”:”4.7.1″,”plugin_mode”:”WordPress”,”select_prefs”:
 * We are on WP 4.7.1. Fix coming in next update?
 * Thanks!
    Bill
 * p.s. Also, is there a reason it’s not compatible with the latest ver of WP?
