   I know this question has probably been asked 1000 times on this support blog, but I must just be missing it. Here it goes,

   I have a website, which also has a WordPress blog setup on the same server, it works perfectly. On the website side (html) I would like to put up a display showing my recent postings of the blog.
   What is the easiest way to do this? Easiest?

   If anyone can help it would be tremendously appreciated.

   Thanks,
   Jim (www.eXtremeSuper.com)

   On a html file it will be a PITA...
   Can you change/rename it to .php?

   Put this at the very top of the html file (adjust path to point at your wordpress installation)--

   <?php
require_once("wordpress/wp-blog-header.php");
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
?>

   Then put this in your side column, where you want the most recent post titles to be listed--

   <?php wp_get_archives('type=postbypost&limit=5'); ?>

   You can change that 5 to however many post titles you want to show.

   Now, in your .htaccess file in the directory where the html file resides you put--

   AddType application/x-httpd-php htm html php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

   Voila!

   I had the same question as Moshu, so I tried the steps you outline but I get this message:

   Fatal error: Call to undefine\function wp_get_archives()

   Any idea what I nned to do is greatly appreciated.

   If you are getting a undefined function it means, you blog files aren't getting called for some reason.

   Where do you have this running and not working? Can you provide the link to it?
