How to embed a WordPress blog in another site?

Question

I am currently building my site using iWeb. Is there a way I can embed a WordPress blog in a website? Or through a simple option or through coding?

Answer 1

This can be done, but not through iWeb. You will need to do this using code (in Wordpress, PHP).

Here is a guide on integrating Wordpress with your site, I'm afraid that the steps outlined would be a too long answer for SO.

It is pretty simple. Use this tutorial at BurnSEO.

Answer 3

I would agree that iFrame is the easiest way ...

However, there are some real problems with this method. Wordpress has its own automatic navigation, which visitors will use, taking them to places that may differ from normal navigation. Categories and more that cannot be disabled. You can remove them with some tweeking from css, but then you can also do php.

Answer 4

I am on a PC and use NetObjects instead of iWeb, but I used an iframe to do my own and I think that the technique can work for iWeb. This is mainly due to the addition of iframe HTML, some javascript to customize iframe hieght and some tweaks to the WordPress theme to get rid of the header.

I put together a tutorial video on how I did it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GuocgQlCmw The description on youtube includes links to where I got information on how to do this, and my post in a blog describing the process.

Answer 5

The easiest way is to create an iframe in iweb and paste your wordpress blog into an iframe. Many people do it this way.

Although you can embed a blog on your site using an iframe, this is really bad practice. If you want a solution that is actually SEO friendly, try DropInBlog
