WP Ghost Compatible Themes List – Tested WordPress Themes for 2026
November 4, 2021
This tutorial has moved to the new WP Ghost Knowledge Base where each feature is presented in detail.
WP Ghost is tested and compatible with all major WordPress themes. It does not physically modify any theme files – all path changes use server rewrite rules. This page lists every theme we have specifically tested and verified.
How Theme Compatibility Works
WP Ghost does not physically change any path or file on your server. All path changes happen through server rewrite rules that only affect how browsers and bots see your URLs. Your theme files remain exactly where they are and are not modified in any way. Deactivating WP Ghost restores all default paths instantly.
This is why themes rarely conflict with WP Ghost. Themes do not typically interact with WordPress paths the way plugins do. They load templates, stylesheets, and scripts from standard WordPress locations, and WP Ghost rewrites those URLs transparently. The themes listed below are ones we have specifically tested and verified, but the absence of your theme from this list does not indicate any compatibility issue.
WP Ghost has been tested with over 1,000 plugins and themes. Safe Mode is compatible with virtually all themes. Ghost Mode (Premium) may require minor adjustments if your theme’s page builder editor hardcodes admin-ajax.php paths.

Theme Compatibility Tips
Safe Mode is universally compatible. If you experience any issue with a theme after activating WP Ghost, switch to Safe Mode. It changes the most commonly targeted paths while leaving wp-admin and admin-ajax.php at their defaults, ensuring compatibility with virtually every theme on the market.
Theme builder editors. Some theme builders (Divi Builder, Elementor, Bricks, Oxygen) load their editor through admin-ajax.php. If the editor does not load after activating Ghost Mode, leave admin-ajax.php at its default path in WP Ghost > Change Paths. Public site rendering is not affected by this change.
Custom theme paths. If your theme uses non-standard locations for assets, enable Theme Security path customization in WP Ghost > Change Paths to ensure all theme files are accessible through the new paths. You can customize individual theme names so detectors can not identify which theme you are using.
Theme detector verification. After activating WP Ghost, run a theme detector test to confirm your theme is fully hidden. See the Hide Your Site From Theme Detectors and Hackers Bots tutorial for the complete verification checklist.
Theme not listed? WP Ghost works with virtually all WordPress themes since themes typically do not interact with WordPress paths. If you experience any issue with your theme, contact us and we will test it.

Frequently Asked Questions
My theme is not on this list. Will it work?
Almost certainly yes. WP Ghost has been tested with over 1,000 plugins and themes. Themes rarely conflict with WP Ghost because they do not typically modify WordPress paths or interact with the login process. The themes listed above are ones we have specifically tested and verified.
Will WP Ghost hide my theme from theme detectors?
Yes, when properly configured. WP Ghost changes the theme directory path and lets you customize individual theme names. Combined with text mapping to remove remaining fingerprints, tools like WPThemeDetector, BuiltWith, and WhatWPThemeIsThat will not be able to identify your theme. For the full setup, follow the Hide from Theme Detectors guide.
My theme uses a page builder. Will it still work?
Yes. WP Ghost is compatible with all major page builders including Elementor, Divi Builder, WPBakery, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, Brizy, and more. If a builder editor does not load after activating Ghost Mode, leave admin-ajax.php at its default path. Public site rendering is not affected. See the full Plugin Compatibility List for all tested builders.
Does WP Ghost modify theme files?
No. WP Ghost never modifies any theme files. All path changes use server rewrite rules that affect only how URLs are served to browsers. Your theme files remain exactly as they were. Deactivating WP Ghost restores all defaults instantly.
Can I request compatibility testing for my theme?
Yes. Send us the theme URL through the contact form and we will test it with the latest version of WP Ghost.
