[resolved] WordPress postings on a handcoded site? (2 posts)

    Hey,

    I just built a handcoded site for an organization I belong to, and am looking to use WordPress so that the other members can add posts without learning web design, but (ideally) without having to completely overhaul my site.

    What I am wondering is, is it possible to just insert blog style postings into my "News" page done via the dashboard with a minimal amount of changes to the existing site? Forgive me if this is a naive question, I am finding it a little hard to wrap my head around the workings of WordPress at the moment.

    Thanks
    -Jesse

    I just finished doing this myself. I used this really short guide to do so:

    The only thing I can't figure out.. is how to create single pages for each "post"... WordPress will generate them, but it will try to use the single.php that is already installed on your server. I'm still trying to figure out how to create your own custom single.php.

    Good luck!
