Each engine has its own administrative panel tools, its own features and design implementation. The most popular CMS are considered WordPress, Joomla and 1C Bitrix, a little less \u2013 Drupal and OpenCart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The advantages of developing a website with CMS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As for frameworks, they are a set of certain blanks for the software platform. It is a kind of template with built-in tools<\/strong> that you can make additional changes to, but you don’t have to write all the code from scratch. A framework is an intermediate software product between a CMS, where the user doesn’t have to invent anything, and the written program code, which you really need to be able to do. It gives ease of development and reduces the cost of creating web services, but the openness of the code requires a separate security solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, frameworks solve problems such as working with the file system and error handling. Applications created with their help are much easier to refine, because the structure is automated. Filling, on the other hand, largely depends on the tasks at hand. Frameworks are tied to programming languages or specific technologies \u2013 the final quality of the product and the accompanying technical support is highly dependent on the qualifications of the original performer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The advantages of developing a website with the help of a framework:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n So, what methods can be used to check the CMS, to understand how the resource looks good to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. The engine in the footer of the site<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The easiest place to start is to see if this information is written in the footer of the site, if it is supposedly created based on a template. The name of the CMS may be written in fine print at the bottom, but as a rule, modern, visited sites disable this option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 1 \u2013 Example of a site<\/a> based on Joomla<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. View of raw links<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The visual appearance of links to the site can also tell a lot. The only point is that they must not be processed by the URL generator. Accordingly, WordPress will show the link as site.com\/r=123<\/em>, Joomla \u2013 as site.com\/content\/view\/12\/345\/<\/em>, the other engines will also show a different kind of links, they can be googled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 2 \u2013 Example of raw link on the site<\/a> of Kiev planetarium<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Login to admin panel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To find out the CMS, you can try to enter a link to log in to the admin panel of the site. Me attachments of different engines, pick up the right combination. Guessing is not difficult, since there are not many common engines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 3 \u2013 Example of logging into the admin area, the site of PPCSEO<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the combination does not fit, then either the resource is not in the CMS, or use another way to determine the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. The source html code<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pressing the key combination Ctrl + U in the browser you can open a tab with the source html code of the site. The meta tag “generator” helps to determine the type of CMS more accurately: as a rule it is specified in the structure. For example, <meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress 3.5\u2033 \/>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In our case, however, the option of writing looks different, but still can be defined CMS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 4 \u2013 Example of site code specifying a CMS<\/p>\n\n\n\n On many sites meta tag “generator” is removed, so it is easier to use other options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. Path to design files<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n On the page of the site code need to find links to css and js design files. They will be different for each CMS. In WordPress root you will see wp-content or wp-includes. And, for example, in Drupal it will look like \/sites\/default\/files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 5 \u2013 Example of the path to the design files<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6. Robots and service pages<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Regardless of what engine the site is on, it has a file robots.txt, which is responsible for indexing, as well as a ban on the display and duplication of technical pages. So, let’s open the site and complete the address bar “\/robots.txt”. Learning the names of directories, we will understand what CMS is used in this case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By analogy with the previous example, take WordPress and Drupal engines: they can be distinguished by the lines “Disallow: \/wp-admin\/” and “Disallow: \/?q=admin\/”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 7. Headers http:\/<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To understand whether the content is accessible to search engine robots, you must sometimes check the response of the server. How do I know the CMS of the site \u2013 information about engines contained in the http-headers response. To check them, it is easy to use a service like Checkmy<\/a> . You enter the address and send a request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 6 \u2013 Interface of Checkmy service<\/p>\n\n\n\n String X-Powered-CMS or option Set-Cookie can help in search. It is worth to specify a URL with the main protocol, to avoid overloading the information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the result is not impressive, you can use special programs. Their principle of operation is generally similar: you only need to enter the URL you want and get the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Among the best programs that the online world is ready to offer users were these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 7 \u2013 The interface of the service ITrack<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 8 \u2013 Interface of WhatCMS service<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 9 \u2013 The interface of the service 2ip<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fig. 10 \u2013 Interface of the Built With service<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are also browser extensions that automatically detect the engine or framework, either as a subset of the desktop programs listed above, or as an independent development. They work through Chrome and other browsers. These are even more convenient tools, which almost in one click answer the question of how to find out what platform the site is made on. In their ranking are Wappalyzer<\/a> , supported by most browsers, and WhatRuns<\/a> , which is slightly inferior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2. Methods for determining the CMS: trying manually<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
