How do you use wordpress capabilities (using wp-blog-header.php) and keep the permalinks behave?

I have a pretty complicated website, so recreating it within wordpress isn’t an option. However, I want to have a blog within the site. For those reasons and more limitations, I have to use wordpress capabilities OR curl call, so the wordpress content will live between my website header and footer.

I used wordpress capabilities with including the wp-blog-header.php in my site, and queries really work with a little effort BUT as you would probably expect, the permalinks link to the blog itself (which is external to my site).

How can I make it work that the permalink to a single post / a category etc. will stay at the scope of the site?

    The short answer is “dont”.

    If you choose to use wordpress externally, you will have to create the permalink by yourself.
    Usually that shouldn’t be a big deal but if you want to cover all “pretty url’s” scenarios it is a pain.

    Finally, I used a CURL request to the WordPress installation and injected the rendered HTML to my site.
    with some mod_rewrite I made the whole system run smooth.
