So shall I reconnect to my present database after I had used the WP functions to retrieve my db settings to my main site?Just a thought...

I have always created a separate file with scripts to generate the template. Part of the reason is because I have different page headers for pages outside my blog. But your suggestion is definitely worth investigating. Neat. I have always created a separate file with scripts to generate the template.

The first part of your example works fine. But the absolute path is given me problems. I want to display wordpress posts from Wordpress on domainA in a non Wordpress second domainB. The code '' has been put in file test.php. When i go to test.php this is displayed: E:\domainA.comA\wwwroot (wwwroot is the root directory on the server) How do I place this test.php in the require code ?? Thanks for your reply Hi, Michael,

I always use a call to the wp-blog-header.php file of wordpress to get the wordpress functionality out of wordpress. Like so in the section: <code><?php define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); require('/wp-blog-header.php'); ?></code> Do you know of the differences between both solutions and the advantages of each? I assume your solution really just calls the functionality whereas the code above loads everything or so since you have to tell to not use the wordpress theme. But I find it more handy cause I won't have to call the get_header and get_footer stuff. Now need to decide which one to use :-) All additional informations are much appreciated.

I remember i had on my first website a handcoded homepage and under blog was the WordPress installation. i have used the same technique. For your second question: i think, it doesnt work.
