 * Hi,
 * [http://openiddirectory.com/](http://openiddirectory.com/) – i’m searching for
   the same script (link directory). I think it’s wordpress with some modified (?)
   hack.
 * If not are there any extensions for wp which enable such features?
 * Thx!

 * Doesn’t look like WordPress to me. It’s a tables based layout, which WordPress
   is *not*.

 * Actually, I’ve seen way too many themes done with tables. However, theme’s aren’t
   Wp either.
 * Nor is that site, for what that’s worth.

 * I wouldn’t be so sure that it’s not a WP site. Look at some of the div id’s for
   instance. And saying that WP doesn’t use tables for layout is incorrect. While
   it’s unusual, it’s entirely dependant on the theme designers preferences. See
   [this website](http://lutrov.com/), for instance.

 * Try to get to wp-login.php or /wp-admin. But what convinced me was this link:
 * `<link href="http://openiddirectory.com/themes/solmed/style.css" rel="stylesheet"
   type="text/css" />`
 * **If** it is WordPress based, it is heavily hacked.
 * [edit] and query strings like: `index.php?do=top-votes` seem odd.
 * That being said, there are things in common for sure — including that odd stylesheet
   link. But “architecturally” it just don’t feel like WP.

 * From looking at the dev site (link at the bottom), I’d say it’s some sort of 
   in-house cms, perhaps borrowing from wp in some areas.

 * look at the headers when you do a search, its not wordpress.

 * That just means it’s not an “off the shelf” WP installation. I couldn’t find “
   wp-login.php” on the site I linked to above either.
 * > _“look at the headers when you do a search, its not wordpress.”_
 * How did you conclude this? Is it the lack of meta link relationship tags and 
   reference to “wp-content/themes” in the header?

 * You could always just contact the guy that runs that site:
    CEO Thomas Huhn: 
   info[at]solution-media.de
 * Got that that person ran it, from this post here:

   [http://www.solution-media.net/](http://www.solution-media.net/)
 * You could even find out some information on it from this post, and even drop 
   a question on there asking what’s powering it?

 * headers have nothing to do with the <head> section OR the meta tag.
 * headers != head tags
 * headers are what the webapp and the server return, see THIS for an obtuse explantion:
 * [http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/Object_Headers.html](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/Object_Headers.html)
 * its NOT wordpress.

 * Aaah, you meant the HTTP header fields, not the HTML header. That’s less ambiguous,
   thanks.
 * > _“look at the headers when you do a search, its not wordpress.”_
 * So what HTTP header field examination tool do you use and how do you know it’s
   not WP?

 * Hi, my name is Thomas Huhn, the guy mentioned by spencerp (thanks for pointing
   to me 🙂 ) and running the OIDD.
    I just noticed this ongoing discussion and 
   wanted to give you a quick answer: Sorry, it´s not WP! [The OpenID Directory](http://openiddirectory.com)
   is custom build for this project. Thanks for your interest!
