I built a site for a client not too long ago and built it fairly standard. Now she has a Wordpress blog and would like an area on the main site to have links to the most recent blog posts. Is there an easy way for me to pull a list of the most recent posts into this content area without having to chop the page up into a Wordpress template?
You want to place the WP feed on the static site? Maybe Developer's Guide - Google AJAX Feed API - Google Code

I have a WordPress blog integrated into my hand-coded site. I use SimplePie to display my latest posts on my website's home page. I wrote a blog post about how to do this - Displaying WordPress posts on a separate web page. Hopefully that will work for you as well. Let me know if you need more information or help.

I want to see Wordpress blog (from already existing wordpress page) to my new SharePoint site. Is it possible? If so, what should I obtain to make it work?
It would be best to see it for example as newsfeed..
Yes it is possible.
You can use the default WordPress RSS feed of your Blog (example.com) at the address URL:
https://example.com/feed/
Then on your SharePoint Site you will have to Add and configure the RSS Viewer Web Part as described on the Step 2 of the official documentation.

If so, what should I obtain to make it work?
You will gain content on your SharePoint Site with possible links to your WordPress blog.
I tried to search everywhere for an answer to my question but I still doesn't understand how Wordpress fully work.
I would like to use Wordpress as my news system CMS only. This means, I do not wish to set up my page layout via the Wordpress theme interface. If you guys know another news CMS called CuteNews, I want my Wordpress to operate pretty much like CuteNews.
How can I put Wordpress post entries into my website that uses my own layout (and not using the theme interface in Wordpress).
Thanks!

I have used this as a starting point for my detached wordpress site and it's working perfect.
You can actually! Without converting it to a theme. It works for me as I don't do wordpress themes but I use WP to power the back-end of my websites. I utilize WP's CMS feature.
here's a checklist of what you can possibly do to your website.
Your website design (html/css)
Install Wordpress on your server, or locally.
Download Blank WP Template, set this as your default template for your wordpress site.
Edit the Theme's CSS/Header/Footer according to your website design while keeping essential WP codes provided in the template.
Set your News Page as the Blog Entry in WP Dashboard.
If you want some news preview, such as titles to appear somewhere on your site like homepage, you can either call it thru PHP code available on the net or install a plugin in WP.
Items listed above maybe broad, but that's a starting point, as you can research on the net for detailed information on how to go about your website with wordpress CMS.
Best of Luck!
I have recently taken over a site which has a wordpress blog on a subdomain. I need to list all the posts on a 'news' page.
The page I need to display it on is a HTML page. I have looked into doing an RSS feed but had no luck. I've also looked into pulling the data from the database but I lack the skills!
Any help would be great.
I have looked into doing an RSS feed but had no luck.
That's the best way to do it. What doesn't work?
See Developer's Guide - Google AJAX Feed API - Google Code and Magpie RSS - PHP RSS Parser
Or see http://codex.wordpress.org/Integrating_WordPress_with_Your_Website for code examples and list the posts.
Is there a way (hack or work-around) to display RSS feeds on a page in a WordPress (.com) blog? I do not want to use the RSS widget because I do not want the feed to be displayed on every page. Thanks in advance.
WordPress.com doesn't allow javascript, which is probably the only other way for this to work. Maybe you should move to WP.org?
Can you run javascript on a page at .com?

If not, might be time to self-host Wordpress. There are cheap hosts out there.
I have around 40 pages on my website. I also have a Wordpress blog. I would like to shift my website to this blog. When I transfer the website to the blog, I want to transfer its pages to the blog as pages and not blog posts. Would that be possible.
The existing pages on the website have the URLs like;
www.xyz.com/article1.htm
www.xyz.com/article2.htm
www.xyz.com/article3.htm
When I create a blog, I want these links to be redirected to new links on the blog, like:
www.xyz.com/article1.htm should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article1.htm
www.xyz.com/article2.htm should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article2.htm
www.xyz.com/article3.htm should redirect to www.newblog.wordpress.com/2009/09/09/article3.htm and so on.
How can I do this?
Also could existing RSS feeds to the current blog, be updated/migrated or redirected after this transfer?
Thanks
I would highly recommend the redirection plugin for this.
It's quick and easy to use and manages everything inside the WordPress admin.

This is one we're using and it seems to do a pretty good job :)
