Add Basic HTML Page to WP

    Hi!

    I coded a page with raw HTML/CSS, I don’t wish to use WordPress as a CMS (I’m a little oldschool, I know..)

    However, I DO want to use WordPress’ login system that way the site is hidden behind a login screen. How would I go about adding my .html page to be part of WP and get that login screen? I don’t want to use WP for anything more than the security feature.

    Let me know if I need to clarify further.

    Thank you!

    Hi wintry,

    Maybe try setting up your HTML/CSS as the template page in a custom theme? You would need to add a bit of extra information to it and create mostly empty theme functions.php and style.css files, but it shouldn’t be much work.

    See http://www.wpexplorer.com/create-wordpress-theme-html-1/ for some of the basic required elements.

    Thank you, I will give this a try. Never done this before, just thought WordPress would be my simplest and best bet if I wanted to generate some usernames (no registration shown though) for people to login to see content while still utilizing my HTML/CSS page already created.
