Which WordPress theme is that site using?
Paste a URL. You get the theme, its parent theme, the page builder and every plugin that loads on the page, with what each one would become if the site moved to Astro or Next.js.

HOW THE DETECTOR WORKS
WordPress writes the paths of its theme and plugin files into every page. The detector fetches the homepage, collects every folder under wp-content/themes/ and wp-content/plugins/, then reads the theme’s style.css header for the name, the author and the version. If that header names a Template, the site is using a child theme, and the parent is looked up the same way.
The detector identifies the page builder from the markup itself: Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Beaver Builder or the block editor. Stylesheet text plays no part, because many themes ship compatibility CSS for builders they are not using.
WHAT IT CANNOT SEE
The detector reports only plugins that load something on the checked page. Everything else stays invisible: server-side plugins, admin-only tools and anything used on other pages, along with optimisation plugins that merge files and so erase their own paths. Treat the list as a baseline, not the full inventory.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the WordPress theme detector work?
It fetches the homepage you enter and reads the asset paths WordPress writes into the HTML. Anything under wp-content/themes/ identifies the theme folder. The theme’s style.css header then supplies its name, author and version, plus the parent theme if it is a child theme. Each plugin that loads something on that page is identified by its files under wp-content/plugins/.
Why are some plugins missing from the list?
A plugin appears only if it loads a script, stylesheet or image on the page that was checked. Plugins that work only in wp-admin or on the server leave no trace in the HTML: backups, redirects and some SEO features. Caching and optimisation plugins that combine files can hide paths too.
Can it detect a custom or premium theme?
Yes, provided the site serves the theme’s style.css. Custom themes often carry a plain name, or none at all, in that header, so the folder name is shown instead.
What does the "on a headless build" column mean?
It shows what each plugin’s job usually becomes if the site moves to Astro or Next.js: a component, a form service, a build step or nothing at all. Use it for scoping, not as a quote.
Does it work on sites that are not WordPress?
It recognises Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Drupal, Ghost, Next.js and Astro, and says so instead of listing a theme.
THINKING ABOUT LEAVING WORDPRESS?
The detector tells you what a site is made from. Reading the same site, the stack advisor recommends what it should move to, complete with a timeline and cost range. If you are judging the move itself, start with the honest checklist.
