Low Variables 3.0 not update not sticking
Hi I am trying to update to the newest version of Low Variables. I added the new 3.0 files to /system/expressionengine/third_party and /themes/third_party. I then visited the module page in my Control Panel. In my CP add-ons > modules Low Variables still says 2.6.1 not 3.0.
I did some poking around in /system/expressionengine/third_party/low_variables/config.php and I noticed this line of code that refers to version 2.6.1
if ( ! defined('LOW_VAR_NAME'))
{
define('LOW_VAR_NAME', 'Low Variables');
define('LOW_VAR_PACKAGE', 'low_variables');
define('LOW_VAR_VERSION', '2.6.1');
define('LOW_VAR_DEFAULT_TYPE', 'low_textarea');
define('LOW_VAR_DOCS', 'http://gotolow.com/addons/low-variables');
}
Did I get the wrong update from devot-ee.com? The file was called low_variables_v300.zip
Thank you!

Low Variables 3.0 is only compatible with EE3. For EE2, the LV version remains 2.x.

Ok got it! Thanks for the clarification Low.

I just wanted to mention that it was Lamplighter add-on that made me think that the version of Low Variables was not sticking. See screenshot.

I don't think Lamplighter takes into account which add-on version is compatible with which EE version. That might be something to address with Masuga Design.
