Incorporating a Wordpress Blog into iWeb

Hi, I'm aware of using an iFrame + code which I've tried. However iWeb has quite a narrow layout and cannot show all of the Wordpress page.
So I'm wondering if others have encounted this. Is it a matter of choosing the right Wordpress theme (currently Twent Ten) or scaling down the Wordpress page?
Also a scroll bar does not seem to appear with the embedded Blog.

No. You can increase the width of the page in iWeb - I don't use a template, preferring the white so that I can create my own site, so my page width is always about 900, which does not present a problem.
You can adjust the size of an iframe by altering the width and height in the html snippet.
Add the scrolling feature by just add scrolling="yes".

  • Integrate wordpress blog into static html/css site

    I've searched with google but have not found any good explanations on how I might integrate a wordpress blog into an existing site.
    I have some familiarity with wordpress and have xampp and wordpress installed on my local computer. I'm looking for info/tutorial on how I could add a page to a static htm/css site that would have all of the navigation, header and footer elements common to the site, but the body of the page would be a wordpress blog.
    Any advice or reference to instructional info would be very much appreciated.
    thanks!

  • Moving wordpress blog to iWeb

    I am building a site right now with iWeb 09. Is it possible to import old content from a basic wordpress template to my new iWeb page? If so, are there instructions online about how to do so? I am having a difficult time finding anything. Thanks in advance.

    iWeb can't import anything. A wordpress blog is a lot more flexible than an iWeb blog. I would keep it and either link to it from iWeb or put it in an iframe on an iweb page.

  • Moving existing Blogger blog into iWeb site

    I have an existing web site and am recreating it using iWeb
    This includes a blog of some years which is created via Blogger.
    Can I import my blogger blog (or the code from it) into an iWeb page so that it has the same look and feel?
    I'd also wnat to ensure that whenever I publish changes to the iWeb site that it does not overwrite the Blogger Blog page - is this possible?

    Keith ~ iWeb doesn't have an import capability. And even if it did, I would recommend you stick with Blogger — that way you'll avoid recurring problems such as these:
    Changed theme on main blog page, lost all entries
    Lost two years of blog comments
    ...iWeb's blog is simply not a robust one — see the following thread started by a concerned person which has a satisfactory ending with a non-iWeb blog:

  • A Basic Guide on Adding a WordPress Blog to OpenCart

    Blogging is an effective and inexpensive way of engaging with your customers. Creating blog posts constantly provide search engines fresh content to index, which eventually help set you up as an authority in your domain. Blogging help you connect with your target audience and build trust within your own industry, by providing valuable information about your business.
    When it comes to build an e-commerce website, an unfortunate reality is that some people believe that blogging isn’t necessary for e-stores or e-commerce website. But, that’s a wrong notion!
    As a matter of fact, it is more important to create blogs when you’re selling something, owing to the fact that customers doubt buying online. And so, offering products at lower or discounted prices may not even work in drawing your customers’ attention. However, having a blog section in your e-store can help you create brand loyalty. But, the problem is that e-commerce sites don’t come integrated with blogging functionality.
    Luckily, there are some great blogging platforms out there that can be integrated within your e-shop. WordPress is one such excellent and the most widely used platform for creating blogs. Once you’ve decided to integrate a WP blog, it is also very important to ensure that you’re using a reliable and coveted e-commerce platform. Most of us have a tendency to use Magento platform for building online stores or sites, however, for creating a small or medium-size e-store or e-shop OpenCart best fit your needs.
    Through this post, I would like to talk about how you can integrate WordPress powered blogs to OpenCart using Wordpress Blog Feeds extension. But before proceeding further let’s first have an overview of the OpenCart e-commerce platform.
    OpenCart – A Brief Introduction
    OpenCart is open-source software that helps set up an e-commerce site cost-effectively. It is an ideal choice for small and medium-size merchants for creating their online site. It is lightweight e-commerce software and is easier to handle. Just like Magento e-commerce platform. OpenCart also comes with tons of extensions (or add-ons) that help embed extra functionality into an online store.
    Overview of Pre-requisites
    Let's have a quick overview of pre-requisites you will need for integrating a WP powered blog in OpenCart:
    WordPress version compatible with your OpenCart installation.
    Access to cPanel.
    Acquire ZIP file for the “WordPress Blog Feed” extension from the  OpenCart site.
    Install vQmod folder because the extension we are using for the integration requires this folder to operate.
    How to Install WordPress Blog?
    Step 1 – First, you will need to login-in into your Cpanel (or you can even choose to use any FTP client in case you've knowledge about working with FTP).
    Step 2 – In this step, you need to upload “Wordpress Blog Feeds” extension zip file into your OpenCart directory.
    Step 3 – Next, from your cPanel logged-in screen you can view an option “File manager”, from there click on the zip file where your OpenCart installation is being uploaded. And then, choose EXTRACT to uncompress the extension zip file. Make sure to save your uncompressed file in the vQmod folder.
    For example: When you access and open your OpenCart URL or folder location/vqmod/xml/, the file you need to extract will be named as vba-blog-feed-to-article1.xml
    Now that you have extracted the file, simply navigate to the vQmod folder and click on vba-blog-feed-to-article1.xml. And then, select EDIT. This will return text that will look something like:
    Once all changes to the file has been made, remember to click on the “Save” button in order to save the file entries.
    Summing Up!
    Irrespective of whether you’re running a small business or a medium-size e-commerce business, blogging frequently will help you build trust and enable you to connect with your customers. Put it simply, an online store selling products can take advantage of blog to drive more traffic to it. Moreover, by writing blog posts about your offerings and its qualities may encourage a user to access your site. If you’re using OpenCart software to build an e-commerce site, then you can choose to integrate WP blog in it. Hopefully reading this post will prove a good starting point, helping you become familiar with the integration process of WordPress blog into your OpenCart site.

    Hello,
    You can try adding a wordpress blog to your Muse site. You should be able to do this. There shouldn't be any issue with it's functionality (You may need to work some more on the design part - This is just in case there is some issue with the wordpress code and the code generated by Muse in the backend). Please also have a look at this related post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4825190

  • Use iBog created blog with iWeb created web site?

    Just began playing around with iWeb, and so far, like it a lot. But I already have a published blog using iBlog. Can I import that existing blog? Do I just link to it?
    Thx,

    You can't import your iBlog created blog into iWeb, but you can create a link to it from one of your iWeb pages.

  • Integrate WP blog into Muse website

    Hi,
    I am about to design my own page, but would like to integrate my existing Wordpress Blog into a Muse site. Since both designs are very different, I would like to design in Muse and include the WP blog with very simple design into a Muse site. In the beginnings of HTML, you were able to include other sites (remember those ugly scroll bars).
    is there any smart way to include this blog into an existing Muse website - pretty much have a header/footer/nav bar surronding the blog.
    Thanks for your help and also examples,
    Markus

    I don't think this is going to be very helpful.
    I have been researching this.  I like most Muse users am not a coder,
    I love Muse in that it allows me to create what I am thinking about without mucking around in any code
    But here is the problem....Muse creates an HTML site whereas Wordpress sites are PHP sites
    I think the only way you could do it it properly is to either install wordpress onto a sub folder on your site named whatever you want your blog to be called and find a similar wordpress theme to your site then add a Photoshop button to link to that blog
    or....and this is the one I am going to play with and if I can get it to work I will post my step by step instructions....because no one that I can find has tried to give a detailed how to on this process.
    1.Create your site with Muse with a page for your blog in the site tree
    2.Export to HTML
    3. Open the Blog page with dreamweaver or another web coding program
    4. change it to a PHP
    5. add the code needed to make Wordpress work on this page
    6. publish your site
    I will admit I am really fuzzy on 5 at this point but I am working on it.
    You will still need to upload Wordpress to your site
    Can anyone at least tell me if this will work.

  • Importing eBlogger into iWeb Blog...

    Good Afternoon,
    Is it possible to import previous blogs from eBlogger into a blog made with iWeb? Would like to keep what I've done previously, but, from what I can tell, this may not be a viable option.
    Would love your input on this...can it be done? Is it worth it?
    Thanks...
    TMCinDC

    No, you can't incorporate anything into iWeb as it has no import facility.
    The best you can do is display your eblogger blog in iWeb using iframe code - place the code into an html snippet and people can scroll the site within your iWeb site.
    Other than that, there is nothing that can be incorporated into iWeb.

    Try holding down the Shift key in Windows when opening iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. The default location for your iTunes library is in C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\ (or C:\Username\Music\iTunes\ in Vista). Look in there and see if you have more than one library file (they have the extension .itl) If you have more than one try opening them in turn, you may find your original library is still intact: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file

  • Print iWeb blog into book

    I want to make my iWeb created blog into a book. Is there an easy way to do it? I found a post about saving the page as a PDF but if the blog post is too big the photos are cut off. I resized the PDF but then the font is tiny and the page looks weird. (I previously had a blog on Blogger and would use Blurb.com to make a book. iWeb doesn't slurp into Blurb.)

    This might not quite be what you're looking for but last year I printed my travel blog into a "home made" book.
    What I did was print out the blog pages double-sided on my Canon printer that allows double-sided printing. I used good ink-jet paper so the colours wouldn't bleed through. Then I used a Canon +Photo Album Kit+ and +Image Buddy+ to arrange the blog's album pictures on the pages to print the pictures. The Canon Album kit comes with 10 double-sided pages and a hard-cover to slide all the pages into. I used their thin paper as a separator between the photo pages. I ended up using more double-sided Canon photo paper and also more regular paper to add things like maps, itinerary etc. Even with all the additions the whole album has held together over the whole year and probably holds about 100pp in all.
    It's not quite as professional a product as an Apple-produced hard-cover book, but we thought it quite acceptable and while it was relatively time-consuming the first time round, it did do what we provide the book for us.

  • Blogs and iweb

    Hi, I have just designed a web site with iWeb along with a Blog.
    How Do I post to the blog when I'm out on my travels with my iPad?
    I have just seen the wordpress application and it seems a perfect solution IF I had a wordpress blog. But surely apple owning iWeb and creating the iPad have a similar solution?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Martin.

    How Do I post to the blog when I'm out on my travels with my iPad?
    You can't. That's one of the limitations of an iWeb blog. IMO you would be better served creating your blog on one of the well established blogging sites like Posterius, Wordpress, Blogger.com, Joomla.com, etc. These will let you manage your blog from any computer or mobile device that has access to the internet.
    You can embed your 3rd party blog into a web page in your site like in this demo page: Embed a Site Within an iWeb Page.
    Otherwise, you will need to have a Mac computer and the domain.sites2 file that you use to create and maintain your web site with iWeb.

  • Help with jquery code into iweb

    Yes, you can use JavaScript in the HTML Snippet. But it requires knowledge of HTML/CSS/JavaScript and how iWeb works.
    Anything you paste in the HTML Snippet is your responsibility. iWeb does not care whether it works or not. It happily publishes the stuff you paste.
    Read this article : [Using the iWeb HTML Snippet|http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2009/07/entry_213.html]
    Follow the link in the article and read this sentence very very carefully:

  • RSS feed INTO iweb account

    I can't use the blog in iWeb because I live at school and the IT department has a firewall up all over campus. So I use livejournal instead. I'm wondering if there is a way to feed my livejournal into my iWeb, or at least have a link at the top that goes to my livejournal, without having to create an entirely new page within iWeb.

  • Flex 2 Wordpress Blog RSS

    I find it EXTREMLY hard to belive, that wordpress doesn't
    support the use of Flex2 RSS.
    The only reason I find this, is because whenever I try to
    call data from my wordpress blog it won't work.
    MY OBJECTIVE IS SIMPLE!!!!!
    Get the RSS From -
    http://grahamtt.wordpress.com/feed/
    Parse it into a simple Flex Blog Reader/RSS reader app(All

    Whenever I try to run my app on my computer it works, but on
    my server IT DOESNT.
    Heres is my COMPLETE code:
    Link -

    The reason I use -
    http://atom2rss.semiologic.com/?atom=http%3A%2F%2Fgrahamtt.wordpress.com%2Ffeed%2F
    instead of -
    http://grahamtt.wordpress.com/feed/
    Is because Flex 2 doesn't read Atom (as far as I know). And
    that's the same thing, I just used the converter here:

    Can somebody PLEASE explain to me how to set up a Proxy

    yea, I've tried that (too what I understand them saying) and
    it didnt work.
    I downloaded the proxy.php and uploaded it to the directory

    worked.
