Golden!!! Worked perfectly! Thanx much!!!

One more question.

Instead of trying to create a theme that matches my site (either from scratch or modifying an existing theme), is there a way I can simply “insert” the WordPress posts onto a page of my existing site? You know, by using an iFrame or some similar method?

Thanx.

Well, I’ve read, and read, and read some more…then went back and read it all over again. I think I’m starting to understand how WordPress works, but apparently, I have a long way to go. I wish there was an easy way to adapt WordPress to an existing site instead of vice-versa. Guess I’ll never be able to figure that out.

A few closing words…

Much reading last week
My eyes are ready to bleed
WordPress is quite hard

Anyone with any idea on how to resolve this issue?

Thanx.

Okay. I spent a little time just looking at all the different pages under the theme directory and I’m a whole lot closer than I was before.

Here’s what I have now…

<?php get_header();
Template Name: Blog
*/
?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">
 <div class="spacer"></div>
 <?php $temp_query = $wp_query; ?>
 <?php query_posts('post-count=9999'); ?>
 <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
 <div class="alt" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
  <h2 class="archivelist" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
  <div class="metadata" align="right">
   <?php the_time('j F Y') ?> |
   <?php the_time('G:i') ?> |
   <?php the_category(', ') ?> |
   <?php comments_popup_link('no reply', '1 reply', '% replies'); ?>
   <?php if (function_exists('show_post_count')) {echo ' | ', show_post_count($post->ID, $before="", $after=" views"); } ?>
  </div>
  <div class="entry">
   <?php the_excerpt() ?>
  </div>
 </div>
 <br />
 <?php endwhile; ?>
 <div class="navigation">
  <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?></div>
  <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
 </div>
 <?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php
get_footer(); ?>

So, now I have it looking like I want it to, but when I click on the navigation links to move between the multiple pages of my blog, I simply get my first page to show up again…no matter how many pages I go through. It seems like WordPress knows the right number of pages, but simply displays the first page over and over.

Any ideas?

Thanx.

I’ve created a template “blog.php” like this:

/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">
 This is the Blog.
 <div class="spacer"></div>
  {insert missing code here}
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

I’ve also created a page using the “blog” template

When I view the page, I can see the header, my custom text, and the footer, so everything appears to be working properly.

I just need to know what bit of code I can insert into the “blog.php” template in order to show the blogroll.

Thanx.
