Need help wrapping WP around a script

    I have BosMarket (www.bosdev.com) directory script and would like to have it integrated into WP…I found instructions on the BosDev forums: https://www.bosdev.com/support/showthread.php?t=4855 (the third post…from elMirage001)…but my problem is that I don’t know enough about code to actually make this work. Everything I’ve tried has messed up the script or done nothing.

    Is there anyone here that could help me with this? I can send files to be tweaked, as needed…but what I really want is to know how to do this so that I can duplicate it for other sites. So I’m not asking for someone to just do it for me…I want to learn how to do it myself.

    Thanks in advance!

    Woops, looks like you have to have an account to see the post…well here’s the info he posted:

    1. Copy the relevant WordPress code in the <head></head> area to header.php and made sure the BosMarket CSS is below all the WordPress CSS

    2. Copy the WordPress page code starting below the <body> tag to the point where you want BosMarket and paste that into “Page header:” text area in BosMarket’s ::Manage Appearance:: selection.

    3. Copy the rest of the WordPress page code to the point where you see the </body></html> tags. Do not include these tags in your copied WordPress page code. Now paste this into the BosMarket “Page footer:” area.

    If you done the above correctly you should now see your WordPress page wrapped around BosMarket.

    Most likely some of the colors and formatting of BosMarket will be off. This is because your WordPress CSS is specifying formatting that BosMarket did not have to worry about before but now it does. So if it does not look right you must tweak the BosMarket CSS to override what WordPress is causing BosMarket to do.
