1: Displaying WordPress on the home page of an OpenACS site

I want to display the latest posts from my WordPress blog on the front page of my OpenACS site. This, however, requires me to change the home page to a .php file. Is there a way around this?

Here is a reference site which described how to add this feature: http://sivel.net/2008/01/most-recent-wp-posts/

You can do the same thing with displaying an RSS feed using OpenACS. There is a feed parser package that might help to get the Wordpress data, which you can then display in a template.

There are multiple ways to embed external content in XoWiki, see e.g. http://alice.wu-wien.ac.at:8000/xowiki/embedded-pages
