What Are the Default Files and Folders for WordPress?

14 April, 2009 - Mitch Keeler, Web Host Support

This question come to me via a forum user, so I thought I would share the answer with you all here.  So what are the default files and folders packaged with WordPress?  They are:

/wordpress/

   /wp-includes/

  /wp-content/

  /wp-admin/

      xmlrpc.php

      wp-trackback.php

      wp-rss2.php

      wp-rss.php

      wp-register.php

      wp-rdf.php

      wp-pass.php

      wp-mail.php

      wp-login.php

      wp-load.php

      wp-links-opml.php

      wp-feed.php

      wp-cron.php

      wp-config-sample.php

      wp-commentsrss2.php

      wp-comments-post.php

      wp-blog-header.php

      wp-atom.php

      wp-app.php

      readme.html

      license.txt

      index.php

Now, just in case this list ever goes out of date – let me now tell you how you can find this file list on your own.  All you need to do is visit the WordPress download page, download the latest WordPress version, and then take a peek inside of the .zip file. 

Now why is this handy to have?  Well, for those people who do not install by hand (and instead use a tool like Fantastico) they may have never looked at the actual files that are installed.  So now for those people out there, you have list to go by.
