Wordpress & Sites

Hi,

 

I'm not too technical here, but I have a general wordpquestion.

 

I currently run my website with Wordpress CMS, is it possible to grab data from Salesforce DB using Sites and have it displayed in my Wordpress CMS?

 

Ex: Display my product list on my Website.

 

Thanks

Yes that is possible.

 

You probably will have to program a bit of PHP though ...

Wordpress can be extended using PHP. That extension could then call salesforce's webservices API to get to any information you want and display it.

 

There is a PHP toolkit for salesforce available at :

You could also create a site in Salesforce (Force.com Sites) and then use an iframe to display the Site in your CMS.

Dear Apelletier,

 

I have write a post to grab data from Salesforce DB to WordPress without authentication. If you need authentication, it may be done with Salesforce Streaming API which I didn't mentioned in my post.

 

So far as I know, there are two different solution that doesn't need authentication:

 

  1. Embedded Salesforce page in WordPress
  2. Get data through Salesforce REST API

 

How to get data in Salesforce from WordPress without authentication?

 

A more detail step-by-step shall be available within next 14 days.

 

Wish it helps!

 

Bestr egards,

 

Amigo
