Design when installing WordPress

    I’m planning on getting WordPress for my site, but am a little confused.

    I have a host and website setup (Weebly). I want WordPress software on my site so i can make blog posts. If i install the software, presumably i can create new blogs posts whenever i like.

    My question is, how will these blog posts appear on my Weebly site? Do i get the chance to choose how many are displayed on the Homepage for instance? Additionally, does every blog i write have its own link in a web-domain of my Weebly site?

    You’d have to ask Weebly about anything to do with your site there – we don’t provide support for Weebly sites. You can’t install and use WordPress in the same directory as Weebly. Does Weebly even allow you to install other software?

    Hmmm, i’m not sure in all honesty. However my website would be it’s own format e.g. https://www.example.com, just that Weebly will be used as the website builder. Does that change things?

    What about idea change Weebly and starting use WordPress for full website ?

    That’s possible, but Weebly is far better in terms of editing the design and layout, so i’d prefer to use that.

    Then you’ll need to talk to Weebly – we don’t provide support for anything except self-hosted WordPress sites. I seriously doubt you can integrate WP with Weebly.

    EDIT – You could conceivably put WP in a sub-directory (if Weebly hosting allows that) and make the WP page/site look like your Weebly site – but you’d still need to do that work IN WordPress.

    That’s interesting … i’m not sure, i’ll get in touch with Weebly.

    That assumes you have WordPress site someplace – either self-hosted or WordPress.COM.

    So that kinda puts you back to square one of this thread.

    EDIT- my reply was to your earlier version which you evidently changed – referencing this link: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20101218190558AAIHvOc
