    I've done some Googling on this topic, and have only found explanations that were too technical for me to understand...so maybe someone here can help.

    My question is: If I go to a WordPress web site, is there a way for me to tell if what I'm looking at is a page or a post, in the absence of any of the typical comment boxes, time and date notation, etc.? I'm not a coder, but I've looked at code for pages and for posts, and don't see anything that would identify if what I'm looking at is a page or a post?

    Is there some way to tell?

    Thanks.

    View source ctrl + u and look in the <body> tag for the information.

    Hi there

    One way you can do it (and I've only just checked this on my portfolio, but I would guess it applies to all WordPress sites) is:

    Go to the relevant page and view the source code (in Chrome, right-click > View Page Source). You should get a new window with the page's raw code.

    If you do a find (apple + f on a Mac - not sure on a PC, sorry). Search for "postid" - if you find that, its'a post. If not, it's a page (you can double-check by searching for "page_id").

    Thanks

    Thanks to both of you. I already knew how to view the code...but didn't know what to look for. Now I do...tried it and it worked...thanks so much for the fast responses.

    I'll make this "resolved" now .
