wp_get_themes() WordPress Function

The wp_get_themes() function is used to retrieve a list of all the themes that are currently installed on a WordPress site. This function returns an array of theme objects, which can then be used to further manipulate the themes.

wp_get_themes( array $args = array() ) #

Returns an array of WP_Theme objects based on the arguments.


Description

Despite advances over get_themes(), this function is quite expensive, and grows linearly with additional themes. Stick to wp_get_theme() if possible.
