Magento 1

Here are 4 different options to find it: 

1. Use free online tools to check the version just entering your website address, for example, MagentoVersion.com
2. Check your version via the admin panel:
   • Log in to your Magento admin panel;
   • In the center of the footer of the page you’ll see a current version, e.g.:
     
   • If you have changed the admin theme and can’t see the version at the bottom of the page, go to System > Magento Connect > Magento Connect Manager
     Find ‘Mage_All_Latest’ in the ‘Package Name’ column. The number X.X.X.X (stable) is the version.

3. Check the version in the app/Mage.php file of your Magento installation. Look for the getVersionInfo() function.

publicstaticfunction{    
  returnarray(        
  'major'=> '1',        
  'minor'=> '6',        
  'revision'=> '1',        
  'patch'=> '0',        
  'stability'=> '',        
  'number'=> '',    
 );
}

4. Use SSH to learn the version. Login to the server via SSH using the root password, navigate to the directory where Magento is installed and type the following command:

   cd /home/username/public_html php -r “include ‘app/Mage.php’; echo ‘Magento version is: ‘, Mage::getVersion(); ”.

Checking for Magento Community or Enterprise

1. The easiest way to find it out is to enter example.com/giftcard/customerin your browser:
   • If you see 404 Page Not Found error, the website doesn’t run MEE version;
   • If you are redirected to a login page, this is the MEE version.
2. You can also check the Magento version via the command line by the codeMage::getEdition() that is to give you all the necessary information:

/** * Magento edition constants */

const EDITION_COMMUNITY    = 'Community';

const EDITION_ENTERPRISE   = 'Enterprise';

const EDITION_PROFESSIONAL = 'Professional';

const EDITION_GO           = 'Go';

 /** * Current Magento edition. * * @var string * @static */

static private $_currentEdition = self::EDITION_COMMUNITY;
