How can you detect what Wix Apps a website is using by looking at the source code?

Detecting whether a website uses Wix Apps involves identifying clues taht comes when using Wix platforms.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

  1. Open the Page Source: Right-click on the webpage and select “View Page Source” or press Ctrl+U (Windows) or Cmd+Option+U (Mac) to open the page’s source code.
  2. Check for Wix Markers: Search for keywords that are fundamental to Wix websites. Use Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac) to open the search function and look for the following keywords:
    • wix: This keyword is prevalent in Wix URLs and scripts, such as <script src="https://static.wixstatic.com"></script>.
  3. Look for appDefinitionName: Wix applications often include a unique identifier in their code. Search for the keyword appDefinitionName in the source code. This might appear in JSON objects or JavaScript code, like: "appDefinitionName": "some-app-name".
  4. Identify Wix-Specific Scripts: Check for specific URLs that link to Wix services in the JavaScript code. Look for patterns like <script async src="https://static.wixstatic.com/something.js"></script>.
  5. Check for Wix Div ID: Many Wix elements have unique div IDs that start with wix-. Search for attributes like id="wix-xxxx" in the HTML.
  6. Search for Wix-Specific CSS Classes: Wix also uses unique CSS classes. Look for classes in the source code that contain the keyword wix. For example: class="wix-xxxx".
  7. Look for Wix Analytics Scripts: Wix integrates Google Analytics and its own tracking scripts. Search for keywords like wixAnalytics within the scripts in the code.
  8. Identify External Resources: Look for links to Wix-hosted resources such as fonts, images, or stylesheets, like https://static.wixstatic.com/... in the <link> or <script> tags.
