Integrating WordPress with site

  • Hi,

    I am trying to integrate WordPress into my site, but I am having some issues. I try to have my index.php file point to my wordpress header by using this:
    <?php
    require(‘./path-to-your-blog/wp-blog-header.php’);
    ?>
    but when I try to then view the page, I get the following error:
    Warning: require(./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/reads/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/themes/reads/index.php on line 2

    Any suggestions?

  • I think i will help for your requirement somewhat.

    Where your index.php file is ,then there put your wordpress folder and rename it as you want like blog.and then go to browser and run yoursite.com/blog and then setup wordpress installation and finally put a link like blog in your main site and give path like yoursite.com/blog.

    Thanks.

    I have done this, but I am basically trying to turn my site into a wordpress site, which requires me to turn my site into a wordpress theme. I have followed a few guides on how to do this but I end up with the error which I have mentioned above.
    Any further help would be much appreciated

    try temporarily switching themes and see if it works

    also, post exact code snippet you are using

    It works with the default wordpress theme. I have created a new folder in the the themes folder and placed mt index.php and style.css in this. The I add the code
    <?php
    require(‘./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);
    ?>
    to the very top of the index.php file as I was instructed by the guidelines I was following. But when I activate this theme I get a blank page with the error I have mentioned above

    well that’s correct

    what does the theme’s index.php have in it?
