I am trying to use Wordpress as a CMS on my own pages which are not part of the Wordpress template. I haven't been able to locate the code I can use to connect to the database and extract the pieces of data I want. Does any one know if this is worth doing or should I just try and can redo the templates to look at my existing pages?
Wordpress isn't hard to deal with. But it require good knowledge of PHP and mySQL. It use layout-content seperation which is confused for beginner but it's very easy to change the template.
