I don't have any experience with Word Press but when you say convert do you mean push the easy button? I'm sure it wouldn't take long to recode your site using the HTML Editor. Why don't you give it a trial run to see how far you can get in 30 days.:) I bet you could get it looking pretty close. You could also try VSD if your not a coder. Your site looks good but isn't that complicated so it won't take long to make a test page to see how you like it.:) I noticed that you have a form and a search box on the home page. CC has a form maker :) but just recently discontinued their search app.:(
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hey there,

Took a look at your site and i agree with Eric it would not take long to convert that site in to HTML, and it should be even quicker if you use the VSD!

There is no automatic converter. Hope i can help

I think I would go for the HTML Editor, because of the various scripts and meta tags. Or you need to familiarize youself with VSD quite thoroughgly in order to get it all into the right place.

You don't have to convert anything, WordPress has already done that for you. All you have to do is save the page displayed by your bowser as HTML. You already have the CSS in the Themes directory. Clean up the HTML to remove unneeded WP plug-in code, etc, and you're done. :)
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

Thanks guys and sorry about the third grade grammar in my initial post. It's scary I didn't even notice that yesterday. :P

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am not familiar with VSD. I tried Googling it and am pretty sure I can rule out Ventricular Septal Defect. Are you talking about Visio format from Microsoft?
