You can defintiely have Article Manager and CMS Builder working on the same page. There are a bunch of different ways to get that going though so I don't quite know which one would work best.
Do you already have both programs setup? How about your template? Do you have the homepage setup and ready to start putting data into?
Let me know and we'll go from there :).

We've setup a single page template already for manual entry of the data from Article Manager. Does that complicate matters?
Also, we want to make another page that pulls lists from 2 different CMS Multi-Record sections. How can we accomplish this?
Thanks,
Chris

To pull lists from 2 different sections just copy the code from two list viewers into one page. By default they should have different variable names and be able to run together without any problem.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Glad to hear you got that first part going!
With including Article Manager content and having it display on your cmsb pages, what I would do is setup your Article Manager templates so they only display a simple list. No real template.
That way, you can just use an include on your cmsb pages to pull in the specific published content.
Let me know if that makes sense :)

Hmm, that might take some experimenting. I think the simplest way would be to have Article Manager publish multiple "lists" with the content you want and include those in your PHP page with:
<?php include "/path/to/include/file.html"; ?>
Would that work for you?

<?php include "/path/to/include/file.html"; ?>
I tried this tag (using[/#000000] <?php include "/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html"; ?>[/#ff0000]) and got the following error:
Warning: include(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153 Warning: include(/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153 Warning: include(): Failed opening '/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html' for inclusion (include_path='/var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/cmsAdmin:.:') in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153[/#008040]
The include tag in Article Manager is this: <!--#include virtual="$published.tenMostRecentAll.webpath$" -->[/#ff0000]
I checked through ftp and the path I used in the php include is correct. Any thoughts?

Instead of this:
<!--#include virtual="$published.tenMostRecentAll.webpath$" -->
Try this:
<!--#include virtual="$published.tenMostRecentAll.filepath$" -->
Let me know if that works for you.
