I guess it is about:

It might be nice to see what version of Joomla (or updated extensions) one updated from—that may be asking the impossible—

I actually think it should be rather easy since we now where the actual version is stored or are stored (for older versions) So me think it should be just (?) another call to the version file(s) to scan for the present installed version and present it in the logs

Maybe a post on issues.joomla.org would be helpful?

If we can find some consensus if this is a welcome feature, and in what J! version this change can should be done .... why not

above my english skills to answer your question , but surely better than before, thank you, at least for me is as simple as you have performed an update from version A to version B core or extensions
i'm hoping that have caught you

Correct.

First idea is to modify the actionlog plugin and change the language constant (in the file ../administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.plg_actionlog_joomla.ini)

PLG_ACTIONLOG_JOOMLA_USER_UPDATE="User <a href='{accountlink}'>{username}</a> updated Joomla from %s to {version}"

where %s is the string containing the old J! version.

Does that make sense?

We can look at updates to extensions later.

Thanks very much, @alikon. Because other people have already tested and confirmed that the PR works, we'll leave things at that and see how it works when the next release of J! happens. 😃
