zohab Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hi, My client want to update existing CMS and add new features in CMS. Currently I do not have source code with me. I find out using file extension it is PHP CMS. All urls on website are showing .html instead .php for SEO friendly feature. My question is how to find which CMS is used using view source in browser or URLS or any other way. - Thanks Zohaib.

ricmetal Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 hi there or, take a look at the source code from inside the browser (Ctrl+U in FireFox). there might be comments with the CMS's name. Follow the css and javascript files too.

ignace Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Like ricmetal already said you can view source to find the used CMS. You can also try to find the back-end using simple paths like /admin, /cp, /back, ..
