Have you installed WordPress?
And to use it in the fashion you suggest, you would probably be best just making a clean install in a subdomain/directory and linking to it from your main website.

In reply to: Article LinksAs I say, a bit painstaking in the copy/paste department, but open a post – copy the content to a page – save with exactly the same title – delete the old post.
In your sidebar you place some code – a call to your pages – and as each page is completed, it will show as a part of the page list.
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=1&title_li='); ?>which can be styled using your CSS will list the pages.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Working with Theme FilesThemes are stored in the wp-content/themes directory. Go in and examine one and see how it is set up. On a basic level most have a header.php, an index.php [body] and a footer.php.
Other elements such as sidebars are called in using a mix of CSS and php/html.
Need more info? Just keep asking 🙂

In reply to: Article LinksAt the moment, every post is contained within a single category called ‘Articles’.
Posts are placed into the site in a chrolological fashion,so any written in September will show in that archive and any in July in that archive and so on…
What may be a more suitable option [in light of what you are seeking] is to make each post a page instead. This involves a bit of cut and paste work, but then you will have each article with its own title, contained by istelf. You can call the pages automatically into a list in your sidebar and this will list every article for ease of navigation.
It will also rectify the issue of long pages of posts [with each one being long by itself already].There are other options too of course, but this may sut your needs.

I personally have not come across an online contact form that does what you need. But, be patient – someone else may know of something that can help you.
