How to Find Out What WordPress Theme a Site is Using

thank you so much for watching the press
Avenue YouTube channel my name is John
and today we're gonna talk about how to
figure out what theme is being used on a
website so we have a Facebook group
which is facebook.com slash group slash
press Avenue I can see it right here and
this question came in earlier today and
it said Maya asked which theme is this
blog using so we use two different sites
to figure this out as well as looking at
the source code one of them is built
with so let me zoom in so built with com
you can enter in any site we'll enter in
our site and it'll show you everything
that is it is built with so we use hot
jar and Google Analytics we use a
Facebook pixel widgets or services this
ones optinmonster thirsty affiliates
fresh chat WP rocket it's all in here
font awesome so this is everything our
site is using we're actually not using
VB press so that is interesting that it
shows that but it's pretty close if we
go to another site called is it WP comm
this is another way to see what a site
is actually using so this one right here
it shows the title the hosting provider
or at least who's hosting the DNS and
then now it's scanning for plugins and
other details if you see here under
WordPress theme details it now says this
site is using the beaver builder child
theme which is true
yuzu a min here they don't have a
database of this it's just a child theme
it comes with beaver builder this says
we're unable to detect plugins on this
site and then sends us to a blog post
but essentially if you go to a site
so I'll let this load here's our site
here make this bigger and if you just if
you go to a site so we went to our site
press Avenue comm right click anywhere
in chrome and go to view page source
you'll see a ton of code from here you
can do ctrl F or command F and type
theme and you just kind of peruse down
here so this top part just talks about
our description if you look here it's
talking about the block library theme
that's not quite what we want right here
it says W so would be your website slash
WP content slash themes'
/ BB theme is what we're using so if you
really search for themes slash you would
see or using the beaver builder theme so
let's try another site if we go to WP
tavern right click go to view page
source search for theme / let me zoom in
here so you can actually see it
WP tavern is using the Stargazer theme
so what I do from here so I go at the
top type WordPress theme star gazer like
enter and now we can find the exact
theme that they're using and we can use
it on our own site so that's how we look
up what theme a wordpress site is using
