CiviCRM on Existing Wordpress Site
April 11, 2012, 03:43:14 am
Hi
I'm sorry if I'm asking a question covered in documentation or already asked... I've been looking for the last hour or so... and can't find it and I'm running out of time ???.
I'm 1 of 2 people working for a small charity with a BIG database of contacts... we NEED crm.

CiviCRM looks right up our street in terms of functionality.

However, our existing website is run on Wordpress - is it possible to use CiviCRM alongside our website (with only admins accessing it) on the same server? - do we need to install another instance of Wordpress or will it sit inside our existing install?

If the answers to my questions are YES then I can sit and work my way through the documentation... if not - then I'll need to look elsewhere.... and fast (i've been put on a tight deadline!)

Thanks!
Clare.

Hi Clare and welcome! Civi will indeed integrate into your existing Wordpress site, assuming your version is compatible. No need to install a separate Wordpress instance. Here's a link to the install requirements and instructions.

Have fun!
