I have a complete HTML based website and want to add my blog to the site.
I want to keep all my design the way it is, including my navigation.
I just want to integrate the blog part.
I guess what I m saying is the blog page to look exactly like the rest of my website without having to change all my website to wordpress.
I have not found anything that will help me except a cut off video on youtube that does nothing for me, and a codex page that does not help either.
Step by step would be great! Any help will be heaven sent. Thanx!
My website where i’d like to install the blog: http://richminded.net/learning-center/index.html

and make header and footer as your design and copy paste all the pages inside the admin of wordpress.
