So now that i've got the database corrected and everything uploaded.

How do i incorporate my blog into my website

I want it to appear on the homepage instead of here; www.gaming4play.uuuq.com/wordpress/

2 ways, both with their problems.

1st way. Simply move all the files from the wordpress folder to your root folder. The potential problem is this might (probably will) throw all the links out, so it won't work.

2nd way. Add a .htaccess file to your root directory. Put this:
CODE
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [L]

The problem with this method is that it's really complicated, and that might not be the right thing to put. Can someone who knows mod-rewrite better than me check it?

CAN ANYBODY explain this to me?

I believe what your after isn't possible. Wordpress as far as I know doesn't have the capability to include your blog posts into another page. So either you use wordpress for your whole site, or you keep it at /wordpress

Thats pretty much what I want.

I just want word press to work with the layout I have created.

Do i have to make a theme or something?
Andrew
Yea you have to create a theme for it. Third result on google, quick and dirty, but if you can follow this and know your way around html a bit should be a snap to create your template. http://bothack.wordpress.com/2006/09/17/ho...e-in-5-minutes/
