I'm trying to create a similar sub domain for my website for videos -http://media.futuremoneytrends.com/index.html
The main website (https://www.futuremoneytrends.com/) is made with wordpress, and it seems this media version is made with bootstrap.
Realistically, I could make this with bootstrap and some custom code and what not, but the tricky thing is that my employer needs a simple CMS to use like WordPress to add video's, but as I've been trying to make one, its notoriously hard to manage to create nice video layout that will function in a similar function as youtube, or more specifically the media.futuremoneytrends.com website.
So knowing that this subdomain is made with bootstrap, and the main domain is made with wordpress, I found some resources online that I can link up my two website to use the same database. Therefore, he can still use the same website and the video's will be uploaded to bootstrap.
Now the coding question
After all that background knowledge, how would I pull information from a wordpress CMS with a website that DOES NOT use wordpress at all (my custom subdomain)? I can't wrap my head around how to do it?
As I think this is one of the only routes I can think of. If there is another alternative I should consider, like possibly just creating a custom php CMS being an easier route, I'll consider that.
Any related resources would be incredibly useful.

Heyy, I'm wondering what would be ideal for creating a website like : http://either.io, I'm not sure if i should make the website from scratch using html/css/php/js etc or use something like Wordpress. Im competent in html/css/php/js however Im not sure if it'll be a waste of time to do it this way as it seems obsolete. The website will have a database, and i also want users to be able to make accounts and submit content to the website, will Wordpress be able to do these functions and if so, will it be easy to manage the database? Also if there is anything else to use, I would love to hear. So for the general question :/ I really didn't know where else to ask! Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
Also i was look at ruby on rails, would that also be a valid option? Thanks
Definitely you should use any CMS (such as Wordpress) for an simple project because there are quite a lot of solutions, components and community support.
Go to custom php(or any other language) project when CMS can't fully cover your planned functionality
For what you describe the website you need to create is simple enough, so Wordpress should make all the job you need. You don't need to build the wheel again.
I recommend you to start by reading Wordpress.org to check the documentation, what you can do with it and how it flow works.
But basically it provides you user authentication and content management, so you should be all set.
If you are creating a static site not carrying much data, html css is better. But if you need to store lots of user information it is better to go with wordpress. Any kind of powerful website can be created using wordpress provided having knowledge in php.
Notable websites using wordpress:
1.IBM Jobs
2.Newyork times
3.Forbes

I need to develop a e-commerce type website with some typical modifications in it.
I want to develop the front-end by myself and I need some extra functionality it, it will be something like a printing service so maybe I will need a plugin that will allow user to upload images with the corresponding type of material used.
I decided to use a CMS because it will help me in the long run managing things and keeping everything safe.
I am proficient in the languages that are associated with these like PHP, Mysql, HTML, CSS etc. But know a little about WordPress or how it can be modified or what is the workflow for developing a e-commerce site with WordPress and woo-Commerce.
I need to design a front-end for it and some specific functionalities. Where should I start? What should I learn first?
Wordpress has a great community with free tutorials over the web.
Download woo-Commerce here.
You can find a decent beginner overview here.
You can find another one here which is more extensive, you can find part 2 to this one here.
To make your own modifications to the code simply go to /wp-content/plugins and locate the w00-Commerce folder. You will most likely have to do these updates through ftp.
You should now be able to edit the php files associated with your woo-Commerce plugin for more customization.
You can expect your site to look something like this before modifications:
Hope this helps.

I've first to design a layout and then to develop this design in WordPress website. I've read some posts on this but can't make myself clear, hence asking here:
To design the layout, can I do like any other normal website or is there any WordPress specific design structure which will need to follow?
Once I finish designing the layout, what would I do?
a. I'll write my own HTML/CSS for created design as I do in case of other normal website? If yes, what would I do next after this?
or
b. I'll have to get a theme downloaded from net which is developed for WordPress, and then (after installing) I'll edit its HTML/CSS pages to convert it into my design (This is what I think right now). If yes, wouldn't be the downloaded theme have code and design elements which would not require for my created design. Also what if my design has something which is not there into theme?
I'm confused how should I proceed with design to development in order to make my work go in right direction. Please excuse me if my questions are really basic, I've not yet worked on any WordPress, Joomla or Magento things.
You should be able to do in wordpress whatever you can do with a standard website.
The only difference is that you'll have to stick to some standard HTML structure.
Start by reading the templating documentation
Then you can download a minimal theme to get a base to start from.

I'm looking for a CMS I can embed inside an already existing php website. Basically I just want something that I can make blog posts from and then those blog posts will show up inside my website's content div. I'm really not looking for anything too fancy but don't really want to hack wordpress. Suggestions?
Wordpress isn't that bad an idea for this: You can access WordPress content from within a PHP application on the same server by including the WordPress bootstrap. You can then list and/or fetch the blog entry / article / page you need.
See e.g. this SO question and especially this one (Galen's top voted answer shows the whole process of fetching a page.)
You could use Osmek's free account. Osmek integrates easily into an existing application since its centrally hosted and requires no database setup. Check out this video http://osmek.com/video
Disclaimer I work for Osmek, so I am biased. But feel free to ask me any question.
Joomla makes it about as simple as possible and will leave room for the day a client calls up and asks for a more advanced feature. Installation into a folder is something pretty common, too.
There are multiple options which are prepositioned for embedding. Most promising seems "PHP News System" http://phpns.alecwh.com/, though I haven't used it and cannot qualify it much. But it claims the embedding process is just a single php call, which still sounds acceptable.
If you want just a blog, I'd recommend Serendipity over Wordpress. Firstly because of the better security track record, and second because it specifically has a switch for embedding it within an existing layout; so unlike WP doesn't need as much workarounds.

The wordpress is such a great tool. I'm wondering if it will be a problem to start adding sections at some point, nothing to do with the blog, just sections for the site with different functionality ( say a database of searching stuff ) perhaps also incorporate and let user reistered through the word press database with the other featues in the site?
What should I need to know for this? will it be OK?
Some firm knowledge of PHP will allow you to write your own Wordpress plugins,
see this (Wordpress: Writing a plugin) page for more information.
There is also a 5 minute video tutorial about writing your first plugin which can be found here
You should try PodsCMS as a way of expanding on top of your vanilla Wordpress install. It's got a great interface, great tutorials, and the developers are always more than willing to help.
You can literally do just about anything with PodsCMS, especially with a good working knowledge of PHP and WordPress' workflow.
I've found the Wordpress plugin Magic Fields really useful for adding cms style features on Wordpress Pages. It may give what you want.
You can modify the wordpress pages if you want it integrated in the blog, or add new things on other pages.
Are you asking if you can use the wordpress login info for other sections of your site?
