Integrating Word Press into Joomla

    Hey guys,

    So I have been doing some more research and I have a couple of quick questions.

    I have heard of integrating Wordpress into Joomla, what are your thoughts on this?

    How do you get your site to match up if you are able to do this, (theme wise) (like who are you able to make the wordpress side of your site look like the joomla side)

    Do you foresee a lot of problems making this happen?

    Other recommendations?

    Thanks in advance.

    Impossible. You can put the content of a Wordpress website into a Joomla website, but you cannot put a CMS in another CMS.

    Actually it is possible . There is a component in the joomla extension site, Witch enables you to do this . But I don't advise you to do it , You can use other blog component for Joomla .

    So your recommendation for a Web 2.0 site is for sure WP?

    Both are good, but joomla requires more work ( for patchs ... ) . So, Yes Wp .

    You can do it, but may I ask why you want to ? I see this more often here on this forum and wondered why people are attempting it :confused:

    Let me guess first... you have heard that WP is SEO friendly and Joomla is more flexible... right ? You want the SEO of WP and the plugin-power of Joomla in one site ?
