 * I’m developing many projects with WP and I’m getting troubles with (a) migration(
   b) WP themes (c) WP development policies.
 * About migration, the WP is not being a good tool, because there is many incompatibilities
   between servers, hindering manual (or with plugin) migration; if the WP content
   core (pages, posts,images, contents, plugins, themes) were separated from security
   core (database to restrict acess) those problems were resolved. Migrate WP content(
   files, images, posts,pages) be something apart from security (restrict access)
   configurated in installation.
    WP NEEDS TO HAVE A BETTER INTERFACE TO (A) MIGRATION
   OF FULL INSTALATION BETWEEN SERVERS OR DIRECTORIES (B) DATABASE MANAGEMENT
 * About WP themes, they have the same problem of migration: the migrated theme 
   rarely brings the settings or content from other WP instalation.
    WP could create
   a seal to classificate the themes in (a) simply = near from WP default themes(
   b) intermediate = with options beyond WP default themes (c) advanced = much different
   of default WP themes. This “seal” could save (much) time for all WP developers
   during the process to choose a template for your project.
 * About WP policies, is need to have WP documentation in all WP previous versions,
   because there is no plugins avaliable to all versions of WP. To say “update your
   WP” is in many cases turn impraticable to develop a project with WP – the solution
   desireable can be developed juts in earlier WP versions.
 * I hope this suggestion can be hear by WP creator, because this will define my
   use of this tool.

 * For any migration issues (and I assume you mean a move) this article may help
   you.

 * As to developing themes there is already a great deal of documentation already.
 * [https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development](https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development)
 * Themes and content are not the same thing. If you develop a theme it should just
   work anywhere and migrating that theme to a new installation is just a matter
   of installing and activating that theme.
 * I am not sure what you mean by “WP development policies” though. Do you mean 
   good coding practices?
