Looking for WordPress Downloads?

The only official source for WordPress downloads is the official WordPress Website

You can go straight to their download releases page to find a specific version of WordPress that you might need. Its the WordPress Releases page.

Did you know that each WordPress release is named after a famous Jazz Musician?

The very first release of WordPress v1.0 was released on 3rd January 2004 and was named after musician Mile Davis.

If your version of WordPress has NOT originated from the WordPress.org website then it may likely have been tampered with or have 3rd party modifications not supported by WordPress, such as using 1 click installers like Fantastico or Softaculous to install these scripts.

Website professionals will be well aware of the risks and never use these 1 click installers to setup your WordPress website.
