We have a 2004 Whirlpool Refrigerator and we have water all in our floor. It's coming from underneath the refrigerator.

Looks like it is coming from around the filter.

I take it you have an ice maker in your refrigerator. The water pipe is leaking. Turn off the water to start. If the filter is leaking your may need a new filter or bypass the filter and pipe direct into your refrigerator. It might be as easy as needing to tighten a nut. the water pipe is held on to the filter with a compression ring and nut. You might try tightening the nut a little more and see if that is the fix. These are possibilities. You need to move the refrigerator and see where the water is actually coming from to start. Just don't panic this is fixable. Hope I helped a little. Good luck.

Most refrigerators have a drip pan underneath them to catch humidity so it doesn't puddle up on the floor for you to slip on. Maybe your pan got bumped during mopping or it could even be full of water. Pull off the front toe kick grill and pull out the pan and dump it out. The only other thing is if you have a water spigot on your fridge maybe the water hose (1/4 inch clear or white hose) has come loose. Good luck

If your drip pan under the frig is full of water check to be sure there is adequate ventilation around the refer. Vacuum the back and underside of the unit to remove any dust build-up. Air moving across the drip pan causes it to evaporate. If there is no air movement the water will just build up and eventually overflow the drip pan.
You still need to make sure the drain hose is in the drip pan and check any water supply lines to the refer.

Yes, it might just be that your pan is full as the first person said. It might also be an air leak into the frig or freezer. That would cause a lot more water condensation to develop.

Also check the water solenoid valves ,usually located at the back bottom where the water line connects . Common place for water leaks .

check your drip pan under the frig it could be full of water. also make sure the drain hose is in the drip pan and not off. if you have an ice and water dispenser then you need to pull the frig out and see if the pipe or connection is bad.

if you have an ice maker it could be the water line

otherwise its probably the condensate pan leaking

Could be your pan underneath is full.
