Grammar
how do you/what do you...
Hi
When I want to ask somebody about his/her opinion I should say: What do you think? (instead of: How do you think?)
However on the other hand it's correct to say: How do you think it went?
It's strange to me!

"How do you think?" doesn't work as a stand-alone expression. Use "What do you think?"
You could ask about the process. "How does one think?"
Yes, "How do you think it went?" is fine, as is "What do you think you're doing?," or "What do you think we should do?"
I've heard, "How are you thinking on / about this?" (similar to "What's your thinking on this?")
