I’ve gone completely WordPress (3.0) loopy. I am currently also working on embedding a WordPress blog into a Magento e-commerce site. Getting a dab hand at it, and will post the link when its complete. I’ve decided to keep the database and file hierarchy separate for security reasons. Doing this sacrifices the sophisticated caching mechanism available in Magento. I will therefore need to look at caching solutions for WordPress down the line.
