This question looks a lot similar to Purchased Theme to Custom Made Theme? .
I purchased a theme which uses Twitter Bootstrap, using which I built a basic website. I stumbled upon Plone (4.3) after my website went beta. I understand that you can make plone the backend for the existing design by creating a theme and using that theme file in the "Theming" option of "Site Setup". I am really not sure how to create this theme file with my existing theme. Any help is appreciated.
Plone 4.3 ships with a sample bootstrap-based theme. I'd start by:
Turning on plone.app.theming (in the add/remove configlet),
Go to the theming config panel
Clone the bootstrap sample;
Start updating it with items from your bootstrap theme.
Read the plone.app.theming manual for vital information on how it all works.

I am sorry i am asking silly question but i did not find this answer in any platform. please share some links too so i can learn this.
TGM plugin is generally used in many themes to define suggested and required plugins for themes.
You can find the GitHub Repo here: https://github.com/TGMPA/TGM-Plugin-Activation and check the example.php file to understand the implementation based on external and internal plugin zip files.
You can also read the installation process here http://tgmpluginactivation.com/installation/
Or you can check the source code of other themes that use TGM plugin, and you can learn the code writing from those themes.

I have a question related to the WordPress<>Joomla compatibility. Recently I purchased a sophisticated plugin which runs on WordPress only. But my website with all the content and the design is based on Joomla. So I'm trying to figure out the means how I could use that WordPress plugin on the Joomla website. As I said before it's kind of advanced plugin with many options, so I guess it would be difficult to adapt the code to fit Joomla requirements. So I'm thinking about two possible solutions:
I could create a WordPress website with the same design that Joomla website has. However this solution requires to change all the Joomla template files, or to build the WordPress theme from scratch. Does anybody know any tutorial which explains how to migrate the template from Joomla to WordPress? I basically don't need to move the content, only the design. All the menu links and other stuff would redirect to the parent Joomla site.
The second solution I think would be to install the WordPress with that plugin on the server and then to create a copy of the Joomla site on the sub-domain. Then maybe I can use something like iframe on the Joomla site to show the WordPress plugin running. Is that kind of scenario possible? What kind of solution would you suggest? As I said before, I will keep my Joomla site anyway, because its already running with tons of data. I just need the functionality of one additional plugin, which sadly runs only on WordPress.
Thanks for the help.
Both scenarios are not practical - with the second being not feasible. What I recommend is that you adapt the WordPress plugin to Joomla or maybe search for a similar plugin that already exists on Joomla.
I am a newbie to wordpress and recently created a website using typo3 for a project at university (as my university servers are configured with typo3). I created the template using Templavoila and twitter bootstrap. I now have to use wordpress theme-HUGE as it is more interesting and suggested by the project partners. I have no idea if wordpress theme could be used on typo3 machine. If yes, how much overhead might occur? Could anyone provide some information on this?
Thanks
Wordpress themes files can't directly be used in TYPO3.
I would suggest you create a new TYPO3 template using the template engine of your choice and then rebuild the HTML structure of the Wordpress template. If your resulting HTML is exactly the same as for the Wordpress theme, you can use the included CSS and images.
If you want to go the easy way, use wordpress for the wordpress theme.
As said above, moving the css from wordpress to TYPO3 is not that hard. But you can not easily move the functionality of a wordpress theme to TYPO3. You have to rebuild it in TYPO3. And that will make a big difference.
For example:
Assume you have to set up a slider element, which is included in the theme. When you use the theme in wordpress, you just need to activate it in the settings.
In TYPO3 you will have to build a custom element, either by building an own extension or using one of the common custom element extensions like DCE oder FLUX. (Don't use TemplaVoila anymore, it's outdated).
And a slider is a easy task compared to the case, that your partners say "hey, we forget the nice blog we have in our theme, let's activate it!".
This might take you 2 clicks in the theme settings in wordpress, but if you want to port that feature to TYPO3 you should really know something about programming TYPO3 Extensions with extbase and fluid.
It might be a great project for learning TYPO3. But if it is a real project, with a real deadline, you will have a much more fun with it, when you use the wordpress theme in the way that it was meant to be used.
I have created a new module based on the Extensible Wizard Example found in http://drupal.org/project/examples. This is a one of 5 form modules which will all run on the same drupal site.
I need all 5 modules to use different themes but cannot figure out how to set a theme on the module level.
I have tried the suggestions in Drupal: How to theme a module and Drupal theme functions workflow in module with no success.
Any ideas?
to do this programatically, you can use the themekey module api, as explained in this post: http://drupal.org/node/622450
Also there are several modules that would help with switching themes based on different circumstances from the frontend:
Themekey: http://drupal.org/project/themekey
Page Theme: http://drupal.org/project/page_theme
Content Theme: http://drupal.org/project/content_theme
There is also role theme switcher and some others
