Hi I wanted to ask a quick question, I`m about to get a project form a client who wants to use the Learndash LMS but he also wants to make a custom theme and not use the premium wp & learndash themes.. I just wanted to have an opinion from you guys is that recommended ? and does Learndash LMS require any "special" development for the theme or it will work on any theme including custom made themes.
Thank you for your time even if I dont know if this is the right place to ask these type of questions.
we want start building WordPress themes for Them forest and we want ask , if you know any good Framework like gantry .
so that we will not need to cod all the theme cod ?
thanks
Don't use any of the frameworks. You have to learn more and dig deeper to create premium theme. Its always advisable to use WordPress Uderscore theme as starter theme. Plus for Theme Options Use customizer.

I made a bootstrap e-commerce website. I came to know that the Drupal CMS has all the feautures that I need to get things done in my website. The only thing that I need now is "How do I convert my site into a drupal theme"
I saw many tutorials which tell how to convert HTML into drupal theme, nut I am not sure how to integrate Bootstrap theme with it. Acquia might help, but I am not sure if it would be flexible enough?
Can someone tell me how do I convert my site, briefly, in steps?
You can use drupal bootstrap theme as a base theme
https://www.drupal.org/project/bootstrap
and then can create a sub theme in drupal.Create your own template files and add your html snippets there.For debugging while creating the theme use drupal theme developer module.

For more drupal theming have a look at documentation on drupal.org
I have been working on Wordpress for a month creating themes. Otherwise, when I'm starting a new project, I'm always starting with an existing theme that I am modifying.
What I want, is to clean perfectly a theme and add to it what I need for the website.
But, my Wordpress knowledge aren't enough to do it. So, I'm asking you if you know a great book, website etc, where they are explaining simply how to create a new theme (understand every features of Wordpress, explaining every functions in the functions.php file, how to add correctly Wordpress post content).
Thanks

Start with the codex http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page which is
the online manual for WordPress and a living repository for WordPress
information and documentation.
What I did was create all the files and save them in a folder, then upload them as needed. I copied them from this simple tutorial and although says its to create a designed theme, it has nothing but basic blank theme:
http://blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/tutorials/how-to-build-a-custom-wordpress-theme-from-scratch
You can download simplest possible theme for wordpress here:
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/simplest
After you take a look at this and create some theme using this simple theme - you will better understand Wordpress Codex, and you can follow #markratledge suggestions about Codex.
Anyway, I decided to not read whole codex and im using this theme ("Simplest") as boilerplate for my themes.
You should check out Starkers by Elliot Jay Stocks:

the wordpress.org will be your best starting point, for your

You can make WordPress themes from the scratch by following some methods
By using Youtube, but that'll be not very professional
By using Google, yes you will find many sites that will show you the process and this is efficient and free
By using Udemy or Lynda, you will learn about the whole process with the necessary knowledge like the hierarchy of wordpress, tools & standards for wordpress etc.
By using wordpress.org, this is most desirable and professional way of learning wordpress as this is the main place for all the things happening around the WordPress.
