A while ago I changed the front page of my Zope-but-static-content site into a COREBlog, while keeping the existing content available at their original URLs. What I did for my site is to move my original Zope content under the COREBlog instance, and sprinkle Apache rewrite magic dust over the thing. E.g., say my Zope folder is "/ngps", where "/" means Zope's root. So previously http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps reaches the content in "/ngps". (See "Old Home Page" link on my site.) I created a COREBlog instance here: "/ngps/blog". Within its folder view, I created a folder "site", i.e., "/ngps/blog/site", and moved my existing content there. On the Apache side, previously I have a standard mod_rewrite/VHM combo. For COREBlog, I added two or three rewrite rules to achieve the following: http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/<number> --> "/ngps/blog/<number>" http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/whatever --> "/ngps/blog/site/whatever" (Personally I just find this more appealing than the easy way of putting my blog at "http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/blog";, because then I'll still have a static, content-free front page. ;-) COREBlog customisation, e.g., adding a Google ads component to the navigational bar on the right, is done within "/ngps/blog/modules". HTH.
