Hi everybody!

I found some sites and I wanna check if these are made in drupal. For example in this page you can see a lot of links of websites in drupal: http://buytaert.net/tag/drupal-sites

And other people told me this page that check if a site is made in drupal: http://cambrico.net/check-drupal-site

So I want to know sites that really are made with drupal 100% sure

For example success cases

And I want to know how reliable are these pages...

Thanks!

here's another source: http://isthissitebuiltwithdrupal.com/

i doubt they are 100% definite, but i suspect they return very few false positives. meaning if they say it is drupal it almost certainly is. if they say it isn't drupal, that's probably also quite certain, but maybe not quite as definitive in the sense that a very small percentage of developers may take extra steps to try to camouflage their code.

you can also look at the page source code. it is often extremely easy to tell a drupal site by the paths of the css files, images, modules, etc. not always, but close to 100%.

in terms of success stories, you're saying the huge list at buytaert.com is not enough for you? if so, i think your expectations are unreasonable. and anyway, the success or failure of a website is not exclusively or even primarily due to it's being drupal or not, rather it has to do with the business strategy of the website and whether or not the site does what it needs to do to meet some real need. drupal is a tool that can make it easier to implement many types of web business strategies, but it won't overcome a fundamentally bad strategy. whether drupal is right for your web strategy depends on your website's specific needs.

Hi,
( I didn't know that is the blog of drupal's creator).

In the success stories I think that with buytaert.com( I didn't know that is the blog of drupal's creator) and I have enough examples.

Thanks for the complete answer

checking for "www.xxx.com/user" is the fair idea for drupal detection?

There is a Firefox addon called Wappalyzer that will tell you the CMS a website is using, it works fairly well though I think some sites that I read are using Drupal it doesn't detect. So I suspect that they disguise themselves somehow to keep from being fingered as a drupal site. Anyway here is the link to the add-on.

Also you can check if the drupal.js file exists www.example.com/misc/drupal.js

You can use wappalyzer extension of chrome which is useful to detect the technology used to make this site. Apart from this you can also use builtwith website also. Here is the links,
