# WP and frames

 * hello all,
    I want to change the News page on my personal website into a more
   bloglike style. I was looking at MT but got confused reading the installation
   instructions. Now I’m looking at WP. My question is that since my site uses frames(
   not good… I know! I know!) Yet, is it possible to keep the navigation of my site
   in the bottom frame and load the WP blog where the news page is now? [http://www.georgelangenberg.com](http://www.georgelangenberg.com)
   best regards george p.s. does anyone know an example of sites with frames and
   have a WP blog?

 * Yes, you just need the iframe to load ‘The Loop’
    [http://wiki.wordpress.org/TheLoop](http://wiki.wordpress.org/TheLoop)
   That’s the ‘engine’ so to speak.

 * thanks Podz hmm, I’m reading and studying how to figure this out. I know nothing
   about PHP.
    And as far as I know my site doesn’t use iframes, or maybe you meant
   the upper frame where now the html page with content is. That one should load‘
   The Loop’? right?

 * It depends what you want from WP…as it is, if you use the whole code, you’ll 
   get the whole thing, from header down to footer, including a menu.
    Just using
   The Loop will get you the ‘entries’ part of the code only. I don’t use frames
   so I’m not the best person to ask about their use.

 * First I’ll get WP up and running on the site, then ask a php/html magician to
   link the blog into the news section.
    It must be possible… somehow… I guess. 
   thanks so far Podz, anyone else any tips? george

 * George, look at the file wp.php, which should reside in your weblog’s root directory.
   It’s a barebones version of WP’s index.php, and pretty much all you need in your
   top frame (though you’ll probably want to play with the layout, etc.).

 * Thanx Kafkaesqui,
    So basicly now I link to the ../news.html (content top frame)
   But I can change that and direct to the ../wpfolder/index.php and that should
   work? To you this might sound like a silly question but I know nothing about 
   PHP and MySQL. I’m learning I’m learning G.
