implementing Elgg on external sites / pages

Hi,

 

I'm sure this is possible somehow but I need some guidance on how to achieve this.

I have a script that access a database and pulls up a certain database entry as a standalone page.

For example:

site.com/pages/unique_pagetitle/

site.com/pages/unique_pagetitle_2/

and so on...

Now I installed elgg under site.com/user/ since I would like to implement some social community features into the site.com/pages/

I am able to load the elgg engine on site.com/pages/ and display the username etc...

Now here is my question...

How can I implement a plugin, widget or some other feature that I create on the site.com/pages/ ?

Is there some code to call a widget?

And how do I create a plugin that shows certain data based on a unique ID for each of the site.com/pages/unique_page/ ?

Each site.com/pages/ page has it's own unique ID so I am able to hook the two systems together. But what is the best approach in doing so?

I'm eading through the docs and the forums, but I'm still a bit new to elgg and al the info is a bit overwhelming.

 

Thanks a lot for the help...
