Turbo Theme Detector: Reveal Your Competitor’s WordPress Stack
Why I Built This Tool
As a developer, I’ve often found that standard theme detectors are quite unreliable. Most of them simply scan for the style.css file, which is easily hidden or renamed by security plugins. When I was doing competitor research, I kept getting “Theme Not Found” errors on sites that were clearly running on WordPress.
I realized that to get accurate data, we need a more technical approach. That’s why I developed Turbo Theme Detector with a forensic logic that goes beyond just folder names.
The Developer’s Forensic Engine
Instead of basic path checking, this tool scans for “Fingerprints.” It identifies unique CSS variables, specific JavaScript hooks, and layout structures that themes like Kadence, Astra, and Woodmart leave behind. Even if someone renames their theme folder, the code “DNA” stays the same, and this tool catches it.
Bypassing Firewalls with Manual Mode: High-traffic sites often use Cloudflare or strict firewalls that block automated bots from scanning their code. I built a dedicated Manual Analysis tab to solve this. You can simply view the page source yourself (Ctrl+U), paste the code, and the engine will analyze it instantly. Since you fetch the code, no security layer can stop the detection.
Key Technical Features
Detects themes by matching CSS classes and script handles, bypassing renamed directories.
Instantly detects if the site is WordPress, React, Next.js, or a custom PHP build.
Find which SEO, Cache, Security, and Form plugins are being used in an organized view.
The Manual forensic tab ensures you get results even when the target site blocks automated requests.
I built this for developers and SEOs who need real data, not guesses. Whether you’re curious about a competitor’s speed or their specific builder setup, Turbo Theme Detector provides the forensic breakdown you need.
