 * [@dragonsjaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dragonsjaw/) – Yeah, that’s
   my fallback plan, but there’s also the categories, tags, and post dates that 
   would need to be manually input- so it’s worth it for me to spend a bit of time
   exploring other options.
 * [@esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) – The developer set it all
   up on his account- basically never agreed to give full access, etc- won’t budge
   on it. Definitely frustrating.
 * I’ve seen a couple of services that can grab the full posts from the RSS, such
   as this one: [http://fulltextrssfeed.com/](http://fulltextrssfeed.com/)
    but 
   I just can’t get more than the last 5 posts… any ideas?

 * But I don’t have any access to the database on the existing site.
 * I get what you mean though- I’m not expecting for it to be super simple. The 
   closest idea I had was to get the RSS feed for the existing site and then import
   it- but I couldn’t find a way to get the full feed for all of the posts… is that
   even possible?

 * Thanks for the response. I would do that except, as I mentioned, we don’t have
   access to the Tools section…

 * I ran into the same problem when I recently installed WordPress – I didn’t want
   my WordPress site to show up until it was done, and I already had a placeholder
   page ready to go.
 * I tried what you said as well, and the problem is that on a lot of hosts, index.
   php is higher priority than index.htm or index.html – on _some_ hosts it would
   work, but it depends…
 * Check with whoever is hosting your site, and see what their priority or order
   of precedence is. My site is hosted with GoDaddy, and their order of precedence
   puts ‘default.html’ and ‘default.htm’ above ‘index.php’ so for me, it worked 
   to use one of those- now I can access my WP site by going to ‘[http://siteurl.com/wp-admin/&#8217](http://siteurl.com/wp-admin/&#8217);,
   while everyone else just sees the placeholder.
