Vinny Hébert - You are using Joomla 3.5beta3 - we do not support beta products and we have not yet completed testing of Joomla 3.5.
You have two broken Gantry 5 particle modules in module manager (see screenshot). The first is definitely broken and should be trashed and then a new one created. The second one actually needs a particle type picking inside it and then saving then it should be good.
Before you trash the first one though we would like to look at your database - can you please provide credentials that will allow us to look at the joomla mysql database.

Alessandro Gallieri - Ok I fixed this for you (well sort of).
The gridpromogallery scss tries to use "accent-color-3" all the G5 commercial templates have this variable but Hydrogen does not. Therefore I changed the _gridpromogallery.scss to use "accent-color-2" instead (which does exist in Hydrogen). Next the gridpromogallery scss is trying to use a font variable which again does not exist in Hydrogen. So... I merely commented out all references to that in the _gridpromogallery.scss. Now the CSS compiles and the particle should be functional.

- Thank you very much, but: how can I understand which parts are present in particle that are not present in Hydrogen?

You have to read the code and look at the variables being using and identify if they exist in Hydrogen. In general most particles are transferable between the commercial templates. Hydrogen is a bit of an exception since it's a very simplistic theme and it was the first theme we ever put together. Things have moved on a lot since we developed Hydrogen.
The other thing that helps is look at the error messages (in debug mode) and compiler errors that you might get - there's usually some pretty good clues in there what is wrong too.

MrT
the latest question: in addition to the excellent work of the Gantry and the development of templates (and the documentation of these), Rocket Theme has never considered the opportunity of carrying out manual and/or complete learning paths? Certifications path? Maybe something in e-learning for CSS HTML5 etc. (I mean paying not necessarily free)

No, we're not a learning and training company. We don't provide any certification courses for the use of our products. We are a software and theme development company and that's what we focus on. We try to provided the best documentation that we can for our products and also expert help in our forums to our members.
There are plenty of html5/CSS learning resources and companies on the net - one of the best know is proably lynda.com .

Hello MrT,
I have seen your tutorial on how to copy a particle from one template to another, but do you have (or know of) another tutorial that explains this for Wordpress? More specifically, I like the "Testimonial" particle in Xenon and would like to use it in an Ambrosia theme where there is none. Thank you in advance for your help! - Instagram: @AnestiVega

Anesti Vega - please don't post in 6 month old solved topics or we might miss your post altogether. The process for WP would be virtually identical to Joomla.
