Is there a known way of connecting WordPress and Sharepoint in a way, that i can choose files located in Sharepoint inside my WordPress media library?
I searched for hours, but cannot find a solution.
Probably looking the wrong direction.
I read the Sharepoint API -Documentation on files, and learned that I could probably write a Plugin myself, but this will probably get pretty time consuming.
I also found a tutorial on how to automatically create posts in WP from Sharepoint using Powerautomate. I could probably adjust this in order to push files from Sharepoint to WordPress. But I actually don't wont to copy files to WordPress, I want to access them directly.
As a further approach i integrated OneDrive into WordPress using this plugin
But this just creates a new problem because I can't find a way to access the folder, created by the Plugin in OneDrive from Sharepoint.
It boggles my mind, that I can't find a ready made solution.
I can't be the only one with that requirement, or am I?
Help is greatly appreciated

So I am trying to customize my already running website via custom code
for better user experience etc.
I see a lot of people developing for WordPress via the code editor
and I simply can't find any information on how I can access my website
via a code editor and customize it with customer HTML, CSS, and javascript (or react.js)
and of course, PHP if necessary.
Could anyone please help me where I can find that information?
I would be very grateful!
Not sure exactly what you are looking for, but I go to CPanel on my host and open File Manager. Scroll down to the public_html folder and the web site below that. Select a PHP file and click Edit. Beware, though, that updating the theme will wipe out any changes when taking this approach.
I'm researching to see if building a full website for a hotel be a good idea to do on WordPress.
I read that wordpress is okay but there are better options.
I want to design and code my own front end look to the website, but have the backend on a stable platform that can take all the reservations seamlessly.
My main concern is to be able to have a backup of all the files and easily switch to another server in case something goes wrong.
I can host the website on my server or host with the service you suggest that comes with the platform all together.
Any ideas and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
There are other options, no doubt, but yes, it can and is really possible to build it using WordPress as CMS.
If you want to design and code your own theme, you'll need to study the WordPress Theme Structure and, since you'll build it by yourself, you'll also need to develop plugins to create custom post types (aka CPT) to make the hotel management easier on the WP back-end.
About the theme structure, files, child themes and everything, I'd recommend you to read https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development
About the plugins development: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/
About Custom Post Types: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/post-types/registering-custom-post-types/
About the backup: it's super easy and you can even make a full backup using free plugins via back-end. But if the site goes down you can easily do it via FTP downloading only wp-content folder and the database. It's really simple to migrate from one WordPress to another, or from host to host.
About the hosting, you'll need to use a server if you want to build this project. There's a difference between wordpress.com and wordpress.org
The .com is simpler, you are not able to build everything you want. The .org is the open source project, which you get the files, upload to your server and connect to database (MariaDB or MySQL). Most hosts offer automatic installation for WordPress and, from there, you can change whatever you want and need.
Note: many developers create CPTs INSIDE the theme's code, but this is not recommended by WP as you can see in We recommend that you put custom post types in a plugin rather than a theme. This ensures that user content remains portable even if they change their theme.
WP is not really hard, after 1 week studying you'll see yourself getting over most difficulties. Even if it takes longer, don't give up. There's a huge community to help you with WP questions.
Hope it helps and I'm sorry my bad writing, I'm not an english native speaker.

I have a desktop app that generates small HTML apps (a zipped folder with a single HTML page, a bunch of scripts with WebGL stuff and a bunch of media files).
Now I would like to make this HTML app easy to deploy to wordpress through a plugin that would:
Let the user upload the zip file from his hard drive
Unzip the contents and store them somewhere
Create a page that displays the HTML app
I'm not looking for actual code yet, just to know that this is possible and that it doesn't violate some constraint. Of course, pointers to information on how to achieve this are welcome.
Thanks for any help
It's hard to give pointers since it's a really broad question, but as for your plugin requirements: all is possible via php and thus, all is possible in a WP plugin.
This is my first time migrating a website from Joomla to Wordpress. The website: www.sfspas.com
1- I am worried that the website will not transfer well or that I will loose functionalities.
Can I duplicate the code and just transfer that version to Wordpress? (Keeping the website live via Joomla and creating in parallel a new website www.sfpsas222.com in wordpress to test things out?)
The website has to be live 24h/7 and It can't just break. How can I make sure the inventory will be uploaded correctly and the website will look as it looks now?
2- Once transferred. If I want to change the appearance of the index.php can I simply upload a newly designed index page on Wordpress? How can I go about it? Any suggestions will be highly appreciated!
Thanks!
I recently transferred one of my sites from Joomla to Wordpress and I can say, that it's not just one-click action. Both frameworks have their own structure, you can't transfer content and users directly.
In short, for transfer you need to create a simple plugin which will take all require info from Joomla (articles, users, etc.) and inject it into Wordpress database, converting prior to that, if necessary.
And no, you CAN NOT do this on 24/7 running site. Don't even think about it. Duplicate your site, convert its database to WordPress, check, that everything works properly, and only then put it online.
It's not an easy process and it requires some knowledge. Even if some kind of Joomla-Wordpress converter exists, you'll have a lot of things messed 100% guaranteed. I've made a lot of transfers in my life, so I'm pretty sure of it.
Providing you have a required knowledge of database management and PHP, just be patient and spend some time. If you don't - hire a professional. There's no easy way here, because Joomla and WordPress are like car and bike. Both are a transport, both run fast, but you can't convert one into another without any effort.
I need to convert a concrete5 site to a WordPress site.
I can't find any plugins on both sides. There might be a solution via a feed ex-/import but it does not support all the contents and images.
Is there any idea how to do this?
I don't know of any pre-packaged solution for this. If there aren't too many pages (under 50 or 100), your best bet is to do it manually -- hire a temp worker for a day if you're a developer with a non-trivial rate.
If there are hundreds or thousands of pages, though, then you'll want to come up with your own automated solution. You can get some kind of XML representation of site content I believe via the Dashboard "backup site" functionality (not the "backup database" one). Or look into the concept of "Starting Points" in Concrete5 -- there's a free addon in the marketplace that lets you export site content in another XML format.
Then look into wordpress importers, and figure out how to transform the C5 output XML into whatever format your wordpress importer requires.
Best of luck.
There's a plugin at the WordPress plugin directory for an automated migration. It supports to migrate posts, attachments (images and videos), content images and list of other things, so it might answer your request.
The quick guide to the process includes following steps -
You install the plugin on your WP website
Create the account at the service
Download the bridge folder and connect to your concrete5 website via FTP
Choose the entities you want to migrate
Try the demo migration (it migrates up to 10 posts)
If you like it you can try the full migration (it's not free)
You may refer this for more info & this service is also represented in WordPress Codex.
Hope it helps.
