 * I want to have a page that I can include in my website with only published articles
   on it. AKA – (default theme) no nav on the right, no header, no surrounding boarder,
   etc.
 * How do I do this? Is there a simple page I can simply include in an iframe or
   do I have to edit it into a style?

 * Just load up WordPress (include `wp-config.php`) and then treat your PHP page
   like a WordPress theme (make a Loop). No need to deal with themes or anything
   like that.

 * I have no idea how wp works, I just installed it and have been messing around
   trying to use it how I want.
 * so in my website I should include wp-config.php, but something else too – that
   just creates the connection to the db.
 * I guess I just don’t understand what you mean by ‘treat your php page like a 
   WP theme (make a loop)’.
 * Is there a doc somewhere (that I couldn’t find) explaining how to do what I want
   to do?

 * Yeah, you guys posted that as I wrote my post.

   the_post(); ?> <?php endwhile; else: ?> <?php _e(‘Sorry, no posts matched your
