WordPress Theme Detector

What is a Theme Detector and how do I use it?
Ever stumbled upon a beautiful WordPress site and thought, "I want *that* look"? That’s where a Theme Detector comes in.
This tool scans any public WordPress website and tells you which theme it's running — along with useful extras like child theme details and active plugins (if detectable). No need to peek under the hood manually.
To use it, simply paste the website’s URL into the search field above and hit the button that says “What WordPress theme is that?” The tool will then work its magic and display the results on the right (or below, if you're on mobile). It usually takes just a few seconds.
Boom — mystery solved.

Does this work with every WordPress site?
Almost — but not quite. If the site’s using aggressive caching, custom setups, or stripped-down code, it might throw off the detector. Also, some WordPress sites go to great lengths to hide their theme info (usually for branding or security). Sneaky devs.

Can I use this tool to find out what plugins a site is using?
Not yet - but we are working on it! :)
+
The theme cannot be detected. What do I do?
Uh-oh — if the tool couldn’t detect a theme, it’s usually one of these reasons:
The site is using a heavily customized theme
It’s running on a custom-coded stylesheet (no theme at all)
It’s... not actually a WordPress site
But don’t worry — if you think it should be detectable, or you're just curious, feel free to drop us a line with the URL in question. We’ll take a closer look, try to help you out, and maybe even improve our Theme Detector in the process. Win-win.
