Is it possible to use a VSD designed site with either a Wordpress of blogger blog? I have a VSD work-in-progress and am stuck on pulling in content from a news blog. I have laid HTML code for the feed but want to keep the content on the same page layout (or VSD design). Any suggestions?

Hi,
I am just installing wordpress for my site as well, and am not really sure how to add it. I have it installed, but don't know how to actually get the blogs onto my site, which I have designed with VSD. Any help would be great.
Thanks!

The only way I have found is adding the feed through HTML but you lose the frame when you click on a link as it leaves the VSD site and goes to the blog site.

Are you guys still dealing with this topic? I just now ran across this post and I'm sure something could be done using iframes at least. I might test that out myself, just to see.

The iFrame works but I am not exactly sure how to properly format the frame...ie.borders and layout. The way I did it was through a feedburner feed link but their logo comes in. I found and have went with a Wordpress theme that fit what I needed.
I would still like your input on the iFrame as I can use it on another VSD site I have...thanks!

I'm sure you've already done more than I have at this point. I just threw one in to see if I could. Looks like I'd need some major tweaking of my own (maybe a slimmer blog and larger VSD page).

Yeah, that's kind of what I did and also with post links. It just wasn't working mainly because when you clicked on a post, it took you to a different page layout. I was trying to use the VSD layout as the main look of everything. Thanks for the help.
Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
