How to structure CI to migrate existing website
#1

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I know this has been discussed before, but hopefully my question is a little more specific. I'm relatively new to CI, but I think I'm getting the hang of it.

I have been working on a new implementation of my existing website using CI, but I'm realizing that it will take at least a year if do it all at once. So instead I want to migrate pages gradually. I have already written the login, registration, and "Home" pages in CI. The existing site is "straight PHP" in many .php files that are called directly.

Should I put the CI application folder, system folder, and index.php file in the main directory with the existing .php files or in a separate folder?

What is the best way to call the existing .php pages directly from my Home page developed with CI?
Do I need to change the existing pages so that their Home button takes them back to the CI Home page?
Do I need to invoke the _remap function within MY_Controller is or there something more efficient?

Thanks for any help!
