Hi I am following the official tutorial of openstack dashboard layout customization here. It says that I need to remove openstack-dashboard-ubuntu-theme. But wouldn't removing this theme before customization will break anything? Also after removing the theme what do I need do...do I need to install some other theme to replace it?
Help will be much appreciated.
First, to answer your first question, by removing the theme before customization will not break anything since it will use the default Horizon (OpenStack Dashboard) theme.
I am not sure how you deploy your OpenStack and what version of your dashboard. But in default Devstack, you will see the default theme of the Horizon.
To see what to do, please take a look at this link: https://docs.openstack.org/horizon/latest/configuration/themes.html
This works for the horizon in any vender.

I have been trying to develop my first WordPress theme. When I added a theme "primer" and started customizing it, it appears as an image.
The primer theme appearing as shown not as it is shown in demo
Can you give a little more detail. Normally themes are generally blank and often never look like the picture. Its up to you to use the themes composer, purchase a composer if your theme does not have one, or hand codde the site only using the theme for an overall look. For instance my theme I use a mix. I installed it and got a blank theme. I then used the composer to add elements and build out the page. Some themes even offer templates which is likely what you saw when you bought the theme. Your theme should have some sort of templates for free or premium templates for purchase you can add on top of your theme to get a prebuilt layout. I would highly enocourage watching a few youtube videos over themes and customizations and using envato.com to our advantage. Wordpress is a beast most people dont realize. Its not a change words and done. There are multiple other sites for that. I just finished my first one and its a bear. It take patience creativity and a basic understanding of Wordpress to operate, and some coding experience would greatly benefit to.
I am trying to make a custom theme to a new project in Sylius. I have read de documentation and followed the steps to create one simple theme to start with.
I went to channel configuration and have assigned the created theme to one of my channels but the problem is that when I load the storefront the theme isn't loading. The profiler show I am using the correct theme but it keeps loading Sylius' default layout.
Has anyone who have achieved this give me an idea if what could be missing? I'm pretty sure all of my files are in place.

All,
I recently bought the following admin theme:
http://themeforest.net/item/white-label-a-full-featured-admin-skin/270758
I also already have the following theme installed and am using it on my website:
http://themeforest.net/item/alyeska-responsive-wordpress-theme/164366
I want to use some features of the first admin theme but not have any issues with the already existing themes that I have installed in Wordpress.
Does anyone know how to use an Admin theme and the features in it without affecting the current shortcodes, css, etc that I'm already using on my own site?
Thanks for any help in advance!
I'm sorry to tell you, but that admin theme you bought is not for WordPress. It's meant to be an HTML start to a backend of a web application.
UPDATE
Alternatively, I'm not sure if you're meaning to take some things from the admin theme and using them in your WordPress theme. If so, please be sure to be more clear in your question as to what you want to do.
No, there are no real WordPress admin themes. The dev cycle changes the admin styles and functions very regularly, with major changes every 3 months or so. This would break any admin themes and makes it a nightmare to maintain, thus no ones does it.
ps. You can change some basic styles like colors/logo and if you know what you doing a bit more. But the link you showed, there is no way, unless you plan on never updated your install , ever.
I started using WordPress just a few hours ago because I need to develop a couple of blogs to a client. I understand that WordPress is the best solution if you want something fast but flexible. But, the first thing that I wanted to do was just change the font of the post and I didn't find how to do it (for all the posts, because I changed it on this one using the HTML editor). I've read something about editing the CSS, but it turns that I need to buy the Pro upgrade to be able to use the custom design.
Is this the same if I use WordPress in my server?
I need someone to guide me on this one. I need WordPress as customizable as it can be. But, I prefer not to pay! :) Unless that's the only way to do it.
If you use WordPress on your own server, you can do anything you like to it - it's open source. The "Pro" upgrade is just for WordPress blogs hosted on the commercial WordPress.com platform.
Do note that running your own installation means you're responsible for adding plugins, themes, keeping the code up-to-date, etc. That has a cost too, even if it's not money directly out of your pocket.
If you are using wordpress on your own server - you are free to do anything with it. The best way to customize your site then is using a child theme. It will contain your customization, overriding styles from previously loaded parent theme (and/or adding some scripts). You will be able to upgrade parent theme then without loosing your customization (until parent theme owners deprecate something you use, but it must not happen often). There are some plugins for simplifying working with it as well. There are also some easier customization ways, if you want just minor changes - such as Custom CSS in Jetpack plugin, which works in similar way, as far as I know.
If you're using a wordpress.com account, you have less freedom in modifying things, consider using paid custom CSS plugin maybe. Or maybe mentioned above jetpack will do.
Also, as mentioned in other answers - there are wordpress codex, wordpress.org forums, and wordpress stackexchange, they seem to be better place for such questions.
In your wordpress admin section of your site (usually www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin) on the left hand side nav bar, you will find a section called "appearance", if you expand this and click "editor" you can edit all of the files that your current theme uses. A quick warning, if you are doing this on a live server, the changes you make are live as soon as you save them!!
Hope this helps
I'm pretty sure you do not have to pay to customize CSS. Check your server installation... particularly in the folder $wordpress_install_home/wp-content/themes/default.
You should have access to all the CSS files in there.
I need to build a new WordPress site form scratch. So I guess I need a blank theme to do that. I need to know where I can find such a theme like that, and I need a tutorial that can help me to create my first WordPress theme from scratch.
I'm new in that world. So please I need your help.
If you're starting with no WP knowledge, I believe you're better off modifying a blank theme than you are creating one from scratch.
Here is a great tutorial I used when I started doing custom themes. The HTML is getting outdated semantically, but it will teach you all working parts of a WP theme.
As a starter theme I use HTML5 Boilerplate which is full of quality HTML5 and additional features like file caching, cross-browser readiness, mobile device readiness, and file caching, to name a few. Also it's got a minimal default styling.
You may also find the wordpress site helpful. Cheers.
starting with twentyten or twentyeleven isn't a bad option either.
Whatever theme you choice make it a child theme.
It may seem like something complex at first but it will make things easier along the way.
Theme Hybrid has a great blank theme: http://themehybrid.com/themes/skeleton
I have a starter theme on github that was originally based off html5 boilerplate that you can check out.. https://github.com/FernE97/html5-blank-slate
