Call wordpress from external website?

  • I know this has probably been asked before but I didnt know what to search for.

    I am building a website and I want to call some information from my wordpress website.

    Is there any way I can do this?

    For example I want to show all of my links from my wordpress blog in the normal website using the ‘ get_links_list’ tag.

    If the sites are on the same server and such, you can include WordPress into your normal site as follows:
    require('/path/to/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');

    All of the WordPress functionality will then be available to you.

    Great got some stuff working, thanks for that.

    One more question, is it possible to enable the plugins for use on the external pages as well?

    I am trying to put a poll on one using the ‘{democracy:1}’ code from the democracy poll plugin but it isnt working on the external page.

    That probably won’t work, as tagged code like that goes through filters on post content and such. If it’s not in a post, it won’t go through the right filter. You’ll need to use the plugin functionality in a more direct manner.
