Showing Wordpress Categories on Non-WordPress Site Pages

    Does anyone know how this is done?

    Essentially, I have a full site using its own navigation structure and templating system. I have installed WP to the /blog/ directory and have it working fine with the same look/feel etc.

    What I want to do is pull the WP category list to the main pages of the site... ideally, I would like to use categories, recent posts, etc on the non-wp site pages.

    I can more than likely pull the posts over with the rss, but what about the main categories menu?

    Anyone got a clue?

    Hi Mark, just make sure your WordPress category function call is in your sidebar.php file and that every Post and Page is calling the sidebar. However, in order to do this, you will have to let WordPress power the entire Web site (in other words, turn it into a content management system with a built-in blog).
