The most current release is always the one that can be downloaded from our website. To tell what release you have installed, you can select the "Configure Plug-Ins..." menu item (under Help in Windows or the InDesign menu on the Mac), and then double click on the plug-in.  Plug-ins are listed alphabetically by file name.

In the configure plug-in dialog, look for the text labeled "Version".  The first two numbers are the version number.  The last number is the build number.  Teacup will occasionally release patch fixes where only the build number of the plug-in will change.
