is it at all possible to find out the name of the theme used by this Wordpress site? https://markforged.com/
I've dug around in the source code, but the css seems minified so I cannot find out much.
If anyone can tell me, they will be my hero!
I've never used this website before today but it seems to work nicely on the few websites I tested: WP Theme Detector. It doesn't work on the website you linked though, saying that it isn't a WordPress website. It might be using a security plugin to prevent websites like this getting information.
I checked on Built With and can see that it is actually a WordPress website. There might be some details you can gleam from here hopefully.
I'm pretty sure that's not a WP site. According to Wappalyzer, it appears to be a combination of HTML5 and the Modernizr JS library.
Regardless of how customised a theme is in WP, or how the CSS/JS is minified, a WP site source wouldn't look the one here. Using a plugin like Hide My WP will stop obvious signs of WP in the source, but it still won't look like this source. Using Firebug, there are no indications of anything WP-related.
If they really are using WP and manage to mask it to this degree, I'd be really interested in how they're doing it.
A lot of themes can be made to look like the one here with a little effort, if you really want the same look.
I have checked a lot of third-party sites, they responded "This is not a WordPress site", but on a specific site I got an alternative respond that the theme might be too custom.

I want to use the 'Ultimate member' WordPress plugin since building that kind of system is a bit tedious.
Unfortunately, no.
As others have pointed out, plugins rely heavily on Wordpress' architecture and functionality for their own functionality.
You may be able to find a service which offers an API for account creation and authentication, but chances are you'll be using custom content for your users, which you'll need a server-side language like PHP (used by Wordpress) for.
Wordpress really isn't too much of a pain to set up, and if you have all the HTML, CSS and JS files complete, you can throw it together in a few hours.
If playing around in WP code really is not for you, there's even plugins to do it for you. Just complete the "5 minute setup" and away you go.
I am using Kirki framework to develop a WordPress theme. After completing the theme I tested my theme using theme check plugin. It throws an error
More than one text-domain is being used in this theme. This means the theme will not be compatible with WordPress.org language packs.
The domains found are myTheme, kirki.
I ignored this issue and submitted my theme to themeforest.net but the review team asked me o solve this issue. Is there anyway i can solve this issue.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance ;)
This is the answer which I got from the support person.
Ideally you wouldn't be including kirki in your theme... You can instead require its installation as a plugin. This way your users will also get any future bugfixes and improvements simply by updating the plugin.
If you don't want to do that and insist on including Kirki in your theme, then there's nothing to worry about...
Kirki has a separate implementation for localizations when used inside a theme: https://github.com/aristath/kirki/blob/develop/l10n.php
The WPTRT team is aware of that and in fact the textdomain is whitelisted when submitting a theme in wordpress.org for exactly that reason (hybrid-core is another one that is whitelisted because they both use the same implementation).
You can point this out to the theme reviewer and link to this thread here, if there any more questions from them I would be more than happy to answer them.
If you don't want to do that either, then you can just manually go through the files and change all 'kirki' textdomains to your own.
I am developing a mobile version of a current WP site, but this mobile version is not WP. So I need to be able to access the information in the database of the non-responsive, existing WP site in this new one. The mobile site is located in a sub-folder called mobile (somesite.com/mobile) in the root directory of the current WP site.
I've visited the WP forum and posted this same question without responses. I've also read their integration page (http://codex.wordpress.org/Integrating_WordPress_with_Your_Website) but it doesn't seem like that would work for this application, because I figure it would just cause the mobile index.php page in the /mobile folder to just revert to the main theme.
Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.
You should use the integration guide you posted:
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
This part tells wordpress not to use themes.
I think a better approach to this problem is to make the current wordpress theme responsive:
there are a number of ways to achieve this: you can add separate stylesheets for different browser sizes: http://css-tricks.com/resolution-specific-stylesheets/ or you can use css3 media queries directly in the stylesheet: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Media_queries
You must create the new site using data from the WP site.
Ok. You will need to create your html/php files, but, using WP database.
You can just access WP database and query it... but you will have a lot of work, in some places... like, URL, you will need to transcript URLs saved on database, and, when a user click on that link, you will need treat it to find "back" what URL it means, to catch the content.
I't not a easy job.
The WP_Query (http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query) class can easy your life.
The WP_Db (http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb) too.
Both, I think you can use without the whole WP.
But, like #Jonathan said, build a responsive template will be a best solution.
I have Joomla and Drupal sites, but I don't want others to find out what platform (CMS) I'm running.
I want to prevent detection from tools like Wappalyzer or similar tools. (as seen in this screenshot: http://i43.tinypic.com/2evc6qo.png)
I've heard that has to do with meta tags but I'm not sure.
There is no way to hide the fact you're using Joomla. If you inspect the source code of a websites built using Wordpress for example, you will see wp-includes within the URL's of CSS and JS file includes.
When using Joomla, you can type /administrator at the end of the URL, however if the admin URL is hidden, against, inspecting the source can give it away.
This might be of little help:

For Drupal, see the community wiki page "Hide, obscure, or remove clues that a site runs on Drupal":
The short answer is :
You can't. Do not try.
You can get pretty far with trying to hide the fact that your site runs on Drupal. But at some point you’ll probably don’t run Drupal anymore ;-)
Have a look …

There is way to hide Joomla from bots.
You need to use this jomdefender plugin. It removes word joomla from all pages, change admin page and add few antibot tricks.
Its not perfect, but it still adds much more security to your joomla such as file integrity check, which could be quite usefull when some file gets hacked.
i have created a website for a non profit organization. People on the site want to post stuff . i want to figure out the best way to allow them to do this.
Can i host a wordpress site and somehow embed it into my website
Do i need to install some whole CMS solution?
Other solutions for supporting user driven posts.
to clarify, the functionality of wordpress is all i need (people posting content and pictures).
It's easy to integrate Wordpress into a static html site.
Integrating WordPress with Your Website « WordPress Codex. (You do need mysql, but almost every hosting company out there offers it.)
If you want to convert an existing html site to Wordpress, look at Theme Development « WordPress Codex. Developing Wordpress themes is no more complex than other CMS's, and here are lots of tutorials out there. You divide up your html into header.php, index.php, page.php, footer.php, etc., and css into style.css. If you do a standard Wordpress theme, then plugins will work fine.
Go ahead and do a full install of Wordpress; there's no option for a minimum install. WP is small, anyway.
If you need a finer degree of working with editors, subscribers and contributors than Wordpress offers out of the box, look at different plugins that offer role managing capability, giving administrators the power to give different levels of permissions to users to write, edit and publish. WordPress › Search for roles « WordPress Plugins
You can pull other content into Wordpress via RSS, too, and either have that content appear as an RSS feed, or have it integrated into published posts. FeedWordPress | simple and flexible Atom/RSS syndication for WordPress
You can get a free account at wordpress.com and try out a limited version of Wordpress, limited in that it is hosted by wordpress.com and you have a small number of plugins and css modifications you can make. But once you selfhost Wordpress, then you can do much more with it in terms of plugins and adapting the css to an existing site.
You could use a Wiki.
There are a few popular free Wiki packages out there these days. By far the most popular would be the framework behind Wikipedia - MediaWiki. Wikis' are a proven way to let users create the content, with systems in place to prevent vandalism/spam. MediaWiki also has a whole bunch of great plug-ins for anything you would need.
Another Wiki option is to use the Wordpress-Wiki plug-in for Wordpress. It lets you use Wordpress, but with some features of a Wiki. Not as feature rich as MediaWiki, but a good option if you really like Wordpress.
You do not need to install a whole cms solution, though wordpress can host an entire site, not just blogs.
You could hack it by using a hosted weordpress and displaying it in an iframe (this one might get some flames - but it works and it's easy)
You could also install wordpress on your server. By the sounds of it this is not your expertise, and while setting up wordpress is getting easier every release, for smaller sites I would much rather recommend pivotx
wordpress has a lot of overhead and requires a mysql database. The templated, while there are more available than in pivotx are harder to create. So I'm suggesting the other solution because it does the bulk of what wordpress does, and though it has far far far fewer plugins, it is a lot easier to theme, as it uses smarty.
This problem/scenario is pretty common. And the most common solution is to install a CMS. Our compagny installs Drupal to let end user manage their website easily. They can edit menus, and change content as easily as you write a document in word processor software.
But there is a lot of CMS out there...
Have you tried blogEngine.net?
I have two sites http://www.dotnetscraps.com and http://www.abhyast.com/ that are hosted using blogEngine.net. It is free and has multi user support, and the best part for me is that it supports both XML and SQL hosting. Anything that you post automatically ends up in the App_Data folder which is what you need to backup.

There are a plenty of themes to choose from, and if you wish you can customize your own theme without much effort.
