* Ok, let me be very clear here, i am not talking about a php page, nor about anything
made in wordpress, this is, a normal, regular html file made in dreamweaver,
which serves as my sites index, i have no intention of converting the entire
site to wordpress, i just want to put my latest post on the site index.html
* Ok, so, ive been looking around and nothing seems to work, many methods seem
to require the page already be inside wordpress or made by wordpress, or otherwise
be a php file.
* What i have is a website that i added a blog to, a normal, html site, which existed
before i even knew wordpress did. I want to display my latest post on the site
index, not AS the index, but just one of several items which show what the site
is about and so fourth. One other display on the page is a facebook feed, which
is just summarizations about certain blog entries or minor project updates not
warranting new blog entries.
* Does anyone know how i can display at least 1 latest blog entry on the index.
html page for my website? it doesnt have to have photos, or a style or anything,
it can just be raw text in a box to get people to click on it so it then links
them to the real thing, as i think people are accessing my site then not knowing
where the blog is or what its about.
* Thankyou in advance for your assistance here.

* You need to fire an ajax request on php file which serves as an ajax response
file and then you can return the blog data from there to your html file. Check
below example i have implemented
* ```
::TEST::
```
* this is just a normal html file i have placed at wordpress root with the name
of “test.html” and created another file called “demo_test.php” with the below
code
* ```
'post',
'posts_per_page' => 1
);
$query = new WP_Query($args);
if($query->have_posts()):
$data = '';
while($query->have_posts()):$query->the_post();
$data .= ''.get_the_title().'
';
$data .= ''.get_the_content().'
';
endwhile;endif;
echo $data;
```
* What it does basically is calls demo_test.php on page load and returns 1 latest
post.
