Hi Karl, i'm pretty sure Dave Finlayson has already provided instructions on how to do this in the forum, have a search for his thread(s), he seems to be the most up on this matter, well worth finding his posts on it.

Thank you. Ive had a little look into that and found the post that you are referring to i think. Is this it?

***

If you want to show your wordpress posts it's fairly easy to integrate wordpress into Actinic, something like this will do it:-

THIS ASSUMES YOU HAVE WORDPRESS INSTALLED UNDER A DIRECTORY CALLED BLOG AND ACTINIC RUNNING FROM THE ROOT DIRECTORY, the code works for actinic brochures pages.

Create a new brochure page called 'blog'
Make sure you rename the page to 'mypage.php' (change mypage to whatever you want, just make sure it finishes in .php

Create a fragment and again call it Blog
Paste the code below into the fragment
Upload, be amazed and praise Me!

!!< include("../blog/wp-blog-header.php");?>
<?php query_posts('showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_author(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile;?>
>!!
NOTE: Dependent on your setup you may need to change the path to wp-blog-header.php.

This is a very basic integration. If you know php/mysql/wordpress you can display as much as you want. A good session on Google should point you in the right direction though. It obviously will require some styling too.

That looks familiar, that's the one.

**karl pearson** · 14-Mar-2011, 07:42 PM

Im new to all this so this is quite complicated for me. Has anyone had any luck in doing this?

**Fairyglass** · 14-Mar-2011, 09:19 PM

Hi Karl,

We recently set up a Wordpress blog on our site, fairyglass.co.uk/blog. Providing you're familiar with FTP software and CHMOD it's quite simple. If these things are a foreign language to you, then it may be worthwhile asking someone to set it up for you, especially if you want to ensure that it looks the same as your site design.
If I can help with questions, feel free to ask, although I'm not volunteering to set one up for you!

Best wishes,
Ben

I installed wordpress on my server in /blog/

and added a "blog" button to actinic which redirects to my blog.

www.patchwork-rabbit.co.uk
www.patchwork-rabbit.co.uk/blog/

To elaborate:

1. created a blogurl variable with has the url for my blog in it
2. basically copied another button (say, home), and posted the following in: <a href="<actinic:variable name="BlogUrl" />" target="_self" class="link_menu">Blog</a>

**rapidecommerce** · 09-Aug-2013, 10:32 AM

I cant get Dave Finlayson's code above to work. I've double checked and triple checked every step, and all I'm getting when I navigate to the .php page is a 500 internal server error.

Can anyone offer any guidance? Tried this on v10 and 2013

**peblaco** · 09-Aug-2013, 11:17 AM

The first line doesn't look right, there is no bracket to start the first line. See: Integrating WordPress with Your Website

**rapidecommerce** · 09-Aug-2013, 11:27 AM

Hi, thanks for your reply. I actually found that page but no matter what I try, I keep getting the same 500 server error.

The latest attempt was using this code

!!<
<?php
require('../blog/wp-blog-header.php');
?>

<?php
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=10&order=ASC&orderby=post_title');
foreach ($posts as $post) : setup_postdata( $post ); ?>
<?php the_date(); echo "<br />"; ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php
endforeach;
?>
>!!

You have to work out where the problem is.

Try using this in place of all the other code:

<?php echo '<p>Hello World</p>'; ?>

If this doesn't work then there's probably a problem with your server / php installation.

If this does work then there's a problem with your php code or the wordpress installation.

Take a look at this:
http://www.graphicz.gb.com/wpsd/acatalog/Blog.php

To integrate Wordpress Blog into SellerDeck

Create a brochure page Blog.php It does not need a fragment.

Create a variable 'IsBlogPage' or similar - default 'no'

Make it 'yes' on the blog page Blog.php

Create a directory called 'blog' and install your Wordpress Blog in it

In SD at the top of 'Brochure Page Body layout paste this:

Code:

<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsBlogPage%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true">
<style>.blogh5 {font-size:16px;}</style>	
<?php require('../blog/wp-blog-header.php');

 /*if you are getting 404 errors uncomment the next 2 lines*/
    //status_header(200);
    //nocache_headers();
 
?>
<?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
        
        <h5 class="blogh5"><?php the_time('l, F j, Y'); ?></h5>
        
        <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4></a>
        <?php the_post_thumbnail( $size, $attr ); ?>
        <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
        <p></p>
        <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><p>Read More...</p></a>
        
        <br />
        <?php endwhile; ?>

		<?php if ($paged > 1) { ?>

		<nav id="nav-posts">
			<div class="prev"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Posts'); ?></div>
			<div class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Posts &raquo;'); ?></div>
		</nav>

		<?php } else { ?>

		<nav id="nav-posts">
			<div class="prev"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Posts'); ?></div>
		</nav>

		<?php } ?>

		<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
              
</actinic:block>

When you customise the WordPress Theme to match your site appearance you can include SellerDeck javascript so you can display the cart contents an link back to the checkout etc.

It is all coded in header.php of your theme folder:

header.php

Code:

<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">
<link rel="profile" href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
<?php if ( is_singular() && pings_open( get_queried_object() ) ) : ?>
	<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo( 'pingback_url' ); ?>">
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
<?php
$filename = '../acatalog/sellerdeck.min.js';
if (file_exists($filename)) {
    echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../acatalog/sellerdeck.min.js"></script>';
} else {
	echo '<script type="text/javascript" src="../acatalog/actiniccore.js"></script>';
	echo '<script type="text/javascript" src="../acatalog/actinicextras.js"></script>';
	echo '<script type="text/javascript" src="../acatalog/actinicsearch.js"></script>';
}
?>
