WordPress Theme Detector
Enter a website to see which WordPress theme and plugins it uses.
Free, no sign-up. Works on any public WordPress site.
What the detector checks
- ThemeThe theme’s name, author and version, read from its style.css. When the site uses a child theme, you see the parent theme too.
- Where to get itWhether the theme is free in the WordPress.org directory, with its active installs, or a premium or custom theme.
- PluginsThe plugins that load files on the page you enter, with their WordPress.org listings.
- Other platformsFor sites that don’t run WordPress, the platform they use, such as Shopify (with the theme name), Squarespace, Wix, Webflow or Astro.

Frequently asked questions
How does the detector find a WordPress theme?
WordPress loads a theme’s files from a folder named after it, such as /wp-content/themes/astra/. The detector reads that folder name from the page, then reads the header of the theme’s style.css for its name, author and version.
Why can’t it find the theme on some sites?
Some sites rename or hide their WordPress folders, combine all their files into one, or block automated requests. The detector then shows what it could read, or that the site turned the request away.
What is a child theme?
A child theme changes a few parts of another theme, its parent, and inherits the rest. The parent theme is the design the site is built on, so the detector shows both.
Can it detect themes on Shopify, Squarespace or Astro sites?
It names the platform for most sites and the theme for Shopify stores. Astro and EmDash sites are compiled into plain pages, so they don’t carry a theme name.
