[resolved] Using the wp-functions in a custom website (3 posts)

    Hi folks.
    I take care of my band's website (www.cnomania.it), which I built 2ys ago. Now I would like to integrate wordpress into the website to manage the news, links and gigs (through an event plugin I am developing); I have seen a couple of tutorials, but they are not really about what I want to do, for they build a brand new wp theme that mimic the website theme. I would like to use the wp engine without the themes; I would like to modify my website code only to introduce the wp-loop and template tags instead of my interrogations to my database.
    Which is the best way to accoplish this? I had though of putting wordpress in the http://www.cnomania.it/wordpress subdirectory, but I would like my home to remain http://www.cnomania.it/index.php.
    I am sure I need to modify my website headers to include some call to the wordpress engine bu I don't know where to start from.
    Any suggestion?

    Great, Moshu, that was exactly what I was looking for.
    I succeded integrating the functions, but I guess I will make a template after alll, for I want to add some ajax stuff and use all of WP's power.
    Thanks anyway dor your precious suggestion,
    Davide
