    Question: I just got my blog running. Now, do I need to get embed code to place it on my website where I want to frame it on one of my pages. Is that possible or am I way off on this? Of coarse it is installed on my web host and runs fine but I need it to be contained on my website. Hope I am making sense?

    Thanks in advance for any direction you can give me.

    you don't want wordpress to run the site?
    you want to keep your original site and embed wordpress into it?
    is there a point to doing it that way?

    I would like the answer to this, too. I do not want WordPress to run my site, for various reasons. I only need an authoring tool to allow contributors to keep my news items up to date on my website. I don't want to redo the entire site with WordPress. I like having complete and total control over my site, without using a complete CMS solution, because invariably when I use those solutions I always run into a roadblock with something I cannot do. If I use only the portions that I want to use, I can maintain the complete control over my website without being dependent on a third-party tool. I also don't know/use PHP, my site is .net. I don't want to take the time to learn PHP for whenever I need to extend something with WordPress.

    So, any tips? Can I do this with WordPress?

    I have the same question as SAMWeb,
    I payed money for a .org domain, and now need a more dynamic website, and would like to add a comment option. So, I opened a wordpress blog. The only trouble is that I dont want a link to a different site, but i want it to be EMBEDDED. I'd also like to add that this is slighty urgent, and that I am entirely new to this, so please avoid technical terminology... <:)

    thank you in advance

    you can set wordpress up in a folder and access it with a link from root like
    http://example.com/blog

    if you truly want to embed it - do a google search on your own

    I also wish to embed Wordpress into my website for reasons similar to those posted by SAMWeb. Unfortunately, the moderator is unwilling to provide a simple answer in good, plain English with enough detail for those not well versed in the insider language of web programming to understand. Perhaps this forum needs a different moderator, one more interested in helping.

    how do you know how much I help? Perhaps we need some folks capable of a "simple" search before whining about others.
