I have installed several GNOME Shell extensions, some from extensions.gnome.org , and some using APT. I would like to see which version of a GNOME Shell extension is installed.

If I open the "Extensions" app by running gnome-extensions-app, this is what I see:

There does not seem to be a way to view the version number of a GNOME Shell extension like "Blur my Shell".

The version numbers are displayed in the app "Extensions" (launched by running gnome-extensions-app), next to the titles of the extensions. It's easy to miss:

Using Extension Manager alongside each installed app there is a small right pointing chevron at the far right beyond the slider switch.

Click on that and it will open a further information screen detailing, amongst other things, the Version number.

Click again on the (now) down pointing chevron to close the information details.

Extension Manager can be installed using the following command:

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-manager

    If I understand the question correctly, OP isn't interested in the version of GNOME, but in the version(s) of any installed extensions ;) – Henning Kockerbeck Dec 13 '23 at 06:58
  • @HenningKockerbeck Thanks for that, I misread the OPs question. Have now provided a corrected answer using Extension Manager. – graham Dec 13 '23 at 08:30
