WordPress in Homepage Source

WordPress is the world's most popular content-management system, powering a large fraction of all websites, from blogs to enterprise sites.

The source-code fingerprint

WordPress serves themes, plugins and uploads from a /wp-content/ path, so the string wp-content appears in nearly every WordPress page's HTML.

Likely false positives: Very common and reliable; a page could reference /wp-content of another site, but self-references dominate.

Stored source examples for WordPress

These examples matched wp-content in stored homepage source when the query was sampled on 2026-10-14. The sites may have changed since the source was captured. A match establishes a source reference; it does not confirm an active installation or code execution.

How this works

The headline distinguishes candidate upper bounds (index prefilter), estimated matches (a projection from checked samples) and verified matches (an exact count established by the engine). The index contains 131,219,565 homepage documents, one homepage per hostname, including subdomains. The source index was promoted 2026-09-22 and follows a quarterly rebuild schedule. The sample date is when this query was checked against the stored index, not a new crawl of each example site.
