    Hi gqevu6bsiz,

    would it be possible to stick with 3, maximum of 4 numbers in the version number/tag please?

    The current version 1.5.2.8.1 is too long for Composer to be able to install it, WPackagist doesn’t recognise it as well.

    I reckon it would be best to go with 1.5.3, 1.5.4 as http://semver.org/ recommends, or, if you really need, 1.5.2.9, 1.5.2.10 for the really minor-minor changes. It’s unusual but the tools can still handle it.

    Five versioning levels are basically too much. Do you have a system in your versioning scheme? Or you just add numbers when something changes?

    Let me know if you need to discuss further.

    Cheers
    Michal

    Hi michalkleiner,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    http://semver.org/

    And many thank for it information. I did not know until now.
    I was able to some of understand.

    I was able to understand your meaning. I was the version management method for me until now.
    Roughly in other words: Big specification changes . Medium specification changes . Major bug fixes . Minor bug fixes . Very minor bug fix

    I will versioning to X.Y.Z in future.(maximum 3 and it is aware of the backward compatibility)
    I will release as 1.5.3 in the near future after fix a little specification Change.

    I’m sorry if my understand is wrong, please point out.

    Thanks,
    gqevu6bsiz

    Great, thanks gqevu6bsiz!

    I think you understood it well and hopefully the link on how to release versions was useful for you too.

    Cheers,
    Michal
