    I’m currently using wordpress to run a blog page however the rest of the site is not using wordpress.
    Currently on the home page I have 3 blank boxes that I manually update to include (and link to) the
    latest blog titles.
    My question is: Can I use something on the home page to get the last few post titles dynamically from
    the wordpress blog or will I have to rebuild the entire site in wordpress?

    Through the world of RSS you can accomplish that.

    I don’t have the direct solution for you, but that’s how you’d do it.

    I would just rebuild them. With Templates, it would be easy to convert those pages to WordPress, since the HTML and CSS can remain the same for the most part.

    yeh that’s what I’ve decided to try and do now as I think that will be easier than mucking about with RSS! Thanks for the advice though :)

    Yes, it can be done without using simple pie / rss. I do this on my site: see krowchukdressage.com

    if this is what you wish to accomplish, it sounds like it to me, then do a search on my name here. The secret was shared with me last year by another poster here on tricks.

    Cheers! Chris
