Feed Wordpress Blog to website
I know that Freeway supports Blogger but I’m hosted on Yahoo Small Business. They have Wordpress integrated into their tools.
Besides a button to my blog, how can I feed my postings directly to my site or, in general, connect the two?
thanks!

11 Mar 2010, 12:50 pmMy ReadFeed Action can do pretty much exactly what SimplePie does, and is endlessly hackable if you want to customize which parts of the feed appear on your page. All it requires is PHP on your server, and a .php file extension on your page.

I have Wordpress connected on my website through Yahoo Hosting. And, I’m adding a button to my website to connect it. But, it looks different and I’ve got to figure out how to get a button from the WP page back to the web home page.

Why not create an iFrame on your website and allow the WordPress blog to appear on your site that way?
Not quite the same but that’s what I did with a Yahoo!Group page here http://www.plasticvilleusa.org/pca/group/
All the best

12 Mar 2010, 12:13 pmUsually, when people say they want to put their “blog” on their “site”, what they are referring to is a sort of “what’s new on the blog” list, and ReadFeed is designed to do that quite elegantly. Many if not most blogs publish an RSS feed, and there’s no law that says a feed reader needs to be Safari or a dedicated desktop app. So ReadFeed just implements a feed reader, allows you to set how many recent articles to show, and lets you set a format for the returned results.
But it sounds like you have something else in mind. When you say that you want to know how to add a button from the WP page back to the Web home page, what do you mean exactly? Is this just as simple as, “how do I add a permanent link to my WordPress template?”
