Just to add, I have cleared out cache in my browser, but per a topic I saw here, I do not know how to clear cache from the plugin.

It was not possible to detect the WordPress theme in http://chaseethan.com, although WordPress was detected in that website.
Is there anyway to even stop the detection of a wordpress site?
nadsrsnugPost count: 6That is great, it worked very good!!!! Thank you.
Can’t help asking…I get the message from http://wpthemedetector.com when I enter http://chaseethan.com .. the reason I want it so secure 🙂 :
It was not possible to detect the WordPress theme in http://chaseethan.com, although WordPress was detected in that website.
Is there one last thing I can do to flat out not tell its wordpress?
nadsrsnugPost count: 6You are very welcome…we are trying for the same goal…hopefully one of us gets the fix (probably not a fix, just education).
Keep in touch
nadsrsnugPost count: 6I had the similar problem. What I did in the mean time to fool whatwpthemeisthat.com completely and also wpthemedetector.com as well (not 100%) is to do 2 things:
— login to cPanel and use File Manager to:
1. go to your theme directory (/public_html/yourdomainname/wp-content/themes/themename) and edit the style.css and blank everything out (not the field name, just the theme info) so it looks similar to this:
/*
Theme Name:
Theme URI:
Description:
Version:
Author:
Author URI:
License:
License URI:
*//*
NOTE THIS FILE IS NOT USED WITHIN THE THEME
THEREFORE ADDING CONTENT TO IT WILL NOT WORK*/
That alone confused whatwpthemeisthat.com and doesn’t know any details.
Now as far as wpthemedetector.com, it somehow does something different. If it can’t find the theme info, is somehow, don’t know how even with disabling all index listing on my site, it is able to get the best guess name from the template directory name…example.
public_html/youdomainname/wp-content/themes/yourtheme/templates/this_is_your_theme_name/
It will guess your theme to be “this_is_your_theme_name” and do a good job at getting the info. What I did was simply change the permissions on that directory from 755 to 750 so anyone couldn’t access it and then wpthemedetector then went after the theme directory name, so I did the same there and confused the hell out of that site.
I surely am no programmer of PHP guru, I just felt that if I wanted my info private, I should easily be able to do it.
Hope this helps. Until then, I just hope we can get a response from wpwave … I want the response from http://wpthemedetector.com to flat out say it doesn’t look like a wordpress site!!!
