All Internet sites operate on the basis of different content management systems, or as they are also called, on different engines. The engine organizes the site, simplifies the work with the content, and also allows you to easily and quickly edit the content of the site, even if you are not an expert in the field of computer technology. Sometimes, in order to understand what a particular site is, you need to understand on the basis of which engine it works.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way to identify the type of site engine is when it is listed at the bottom of the page or in the information section. If it is not possible to determine the engine in this way, move on to more complex ways to identify it.
Step 2
Different engines have their own peculiarities, which are manifested in http-addresses, cookies and other parameters. For example, the Wordpress engine differs in the address bar - you can easily identify it by the address https://site.ru/wp-admin. Type this address in the address bar of the browser, entering the site address instead of site.ru, and if the authorization page of the Wordpress administrator opens, you have identified the engine correctly
Step 3
In addition, to determine the engine, you can open the source code of the page - this can be done in any browser. Look in the page code for information on which engine the site is run on. If, for example, the text wp-content is found in the style addresses, this also speaks of the Wordpress engine.
Step 4
In order to determine the engine of the site powered by Data Life Engine, open the source html-code of the page - you will find the line https://dle-news.ru in it)”/>. The following type of addresses will appear as a source of scripts in the source code of such an engine: engine / ajax / dle_ajax.js.
Step 5
If the site is powered by the Bitrix engine, look at its html-code - the path to the CSS file must include the word bitrix, which, in addition, is included in all addresses of graphic files used on the site.
Step 6
Also, the path to CSS files helps to identify the Maxsite CMS engine - the word maxsite is contained in the path to style files, scripts and site plugins.
Step 7
To determine the presence of the Danneo engine in the site, enter / apanel after the domain name.
Step 8
If the site is written in Joomla engine, enter / administrator after the site domain name, or check if the domain name is included in the CSS file URL in the page source code.
Step 9
You can define the MODx CMS engine by finding the assets item in the path to images, style files and scripts in the page code.
Step 10
You can also use special services and plugins built into the browser to determine the site engine - for example, the Wappalyzer plugin.
