    you need to upload the wordpress files to your host and install it from there. I'm sure it'll explain it on the WP site (i'll go see if I can find a link). Aye found it, here we are, a guide.

    You'd have to FTP the files up onto your site. No one but you (or someone you give the FTP details to) can do this.

    PMing me with the URL won't help at all.

    You don't need to "make" anything.

    The only thing you need to do is to upload unzipped wordpress files to your web hosting account - then follow few easy steps explained in Wordpress codex to install it. It is really simple - it should take at most few minutes.

    Ah so your not looking to set up wordpress on your site, rather code a template?

    I have some links to tutorials on how to do it on my computer back home, i'll post them tomorow (when I get back) if no one has posted something that helps by then.

    No. You just doenload them from www.wordpress.org, unzip them and upload them... Then follow few easy steps to install Wordpress and you're done. You won't need to create any additional files. All your posts etc are stored in a database ;)

    Probably no.

    Just backup all your content and once the wordpress is running - fill it in via admin panel. It might take some time but in a longer run it will save you lots of time and effort.

    Well, lets try again... I have designed a site: linuxmed.webs.com/index682.html and i wonder if it's possible to be incorporated with a WordPress blog.I have css files and the index.html .This cannot work as a blog. I want to make it work like a WordPress blog (as i told). I have a server which supports php, mysql, apache etc. This server needs all the wordpress files which will be downloaded from wordpress.org/com i don't care :p.In /wp-content/themes are located all the themes. I don't like them and i want as a theme the interface of the site which is located on freewebs (i mentioned it up). Is there any simple way?Please respond to my question with a little professionalism.

    Think that i want to have my posts listed like a normal WordPress blog in the blank space of page, where "News" begin.
    Thanks.

    Unless you know what your doing, things could get a little complicated. If you have money, you could probably pay someone on this forum to covert it into a WP theme for you.

    Finally I hope I understand.

    Well, it's a little bit more complicated and I don't have time to explain it step by step here in forums. You might follow some guides on the Web - just google How to make own Wordpress theme or something like that and follow it.

    Peace.

    Really thanks guys and especially Smeey !! As i told you, I'm trying to find someone who can do it for me free. It's a little diffucult -as you know- to read all the documentation. So, firstly, i asked if it's possible for someone to do it.

    Well, I doubt someone will do it for free. It isn't so difficult but it takes much time... You can try looking into Buy, Sell, Trade >> Services >> Proramming section of forum - from time to time begginer coders offer things like that for free there to build their portfolio.

    I don't have permissions to post in that section, but i found a URL which maybe help other people to do something like this.I tried but i failed, so if anyone can ask on this section of forum (buy,sell or trade-->Services-->Programming) i'd be happy. The URL i mentioned is jonathanwold.com/tutorials/wordpress_theme/
