What The File

What The File is a plugin for site builders and developers who need to quickly identify which template file is responsible for rendering the page they're viewing. Instead of manually tracing the template hierarchy, you get the file name displayed directly in your admin toolbar.

• Toolbar file indicator: The plugin adds the active template file name to the toolbar, so you always know which file to edit without leaving the front end.
• One-click theme editor access: Click the file name in the toolbar to open it in the built-in theme editor for quick tweaks. (For larger changes, editing via a code editor is recommended.)
• Roots Theme support: Since version 1.1.0, the plugin works with Roots-based themes, extending its usefulness to modern theme frameworks.
• Beginner-friendly: Designed for users who are still learning the template hierarchy, it removes the guesswork and speeds up the editing process.
• Lightweight and focused: The plugin does one thing—shows the current template file—and does it without adding unnecessary bloat or complexity.
