What Theme Is This?

I want to create a site like this: https://www.dexerto.com/

However it doesn't seem to appear to be a WordPress site.

It's not using a 'theme', WordPress, or any other CMS according to online detectors. It's custom-made by square1.io.

This website cost them thousands of dollars.

Looks like a custom one to me. Not using wp. Using some kind of framework.

Edit: Damn, the login looks like wp to me..


My theory is that they are using a multi site wp to manage the content from backend. For the frontend, they are using some custom solution. They are just using the same db, that's it.

Code:

https://dexerto.publisherplus.com/admin/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fdexerto.publisherplus.com%2Fadmin%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

Would you know how how to replicate this?

Its a customized site not just a theme by WP.

You could easily do it using wordpress, no matter what they are using. That being said, it will need to be a custom theme, so it take some work for sure.

If you want to do it like they did...
Then you will need two projects. WP for managing the backend (the default installation should work. No theme customization will be needed) and something like laravel or yii2 for the actual frontend of the site. It will look cool.

If you want to hire someone for doing this, post in Hire A Freelancer section.

Plenty of similar ones on themeforest. Just filter by "magazine" theme.
