Wordpress Integration Video Tutorial

After the popularity of our written tutorial on how to integrate Wordpress into any existing website, we found that many people got confused or had a hard time following the written tutorial.

Often copying the code over from the written tutorial was cause for further issues.

Wordpress is such a popular and powerful blogging platform that any website can benefit from implementing it. We have found that there is surprisingly little information available on how to easily accomplish this task. The average person is not a PHP guru and may need some assistance in pointing out what needs to be done in order to seamlessly integrate Wordpress into their website.

In an effort to further aid the community in easily integrating Wordpress into your existing website, we have now documented through a short video how to integrate Wordpress into any existing website within 10 minutes!

Follow the step by step instructions in the video below and you can integrate Wordpress into any existing website you may have. It doesn’t matter if it’s a CMS or straight HTML website!

If you read the written tutorial you can get an idea of what is needed in order to setup a placeholder blog that you can work from.

Also please remember to delete all the old code once your done working with the individual files. It is shown in all steps except the header.php file in the video. Before saving scroll down and delete all your old code you didn’t use!

You may want to take a peek at the written tutorial on how to integrate wordpress into your existing website before starting.

This is a very good tutorial, but you should translate it to other languages, also the video tutorial, I think. The support is very good.

I've tried following this and the accompanying text tutorial several times now and invariably end up with a blank white page once I've uploaded the header, footer, and index files. When I view the page's source, it's also blank. Any suggestions?

I just want to say THANKS!!. This was exactly what I was looking for. And very well explained by this video.
You are the best.

Thank you soo much for this tutorial it was a life saver. but for some reason I can't get the single.php file to look like the rest of my pages.
the other parts of the tutorial went fine though. if you wouldn't mind looking at my code to see what's going wrong. and you didn't quiet explain the placement of the sidebar thing. but other than that this was an extremely Great tutorial

I did everything, but when i pull up the page on my own site, it only shows the generic post from Wordpress. It seems like wordpress is not sending all the posts to display on my website. Can anyone help me?

Pretty useful integration vid, thanks!

Gareth Hunt

i'm trying to follow this, but when you saved the header file it seems like you still had all the old code left??

Richard

In the video, he put in text that you must erase the left over code at the end, If you do this, it works perfectly.

Chris Burns

Thank you Richard. There is both a reference in the written text before the video and also a popup text in the video reminding to remove the old text from the header file.

I made a horrible mistake in editing and cut that section out :(. It was my first video tutorial so I won't make that mistake again in future tutorials :)

Gareth Hunt

Thanks for the tutorial, Got this all working now!

Only thing i have left to is add sidebars when a visitor clicks the 'archive' and 'category' widgets. Is this simple to do? Thanks.

Chris Burns

Excellent question!

You just open up the archive.php and use the index.php code as it's base. Replace the main content form the index.php with the old main content from the archive.php and it will be integrated :)
