Can I transfer my template from WordPress to Joomla?

I’ve found a template that I really like from WordPress but I want to switch to using joomla. Is it possible to use a wordpress template in joomla? If so, how?

No, as they are 2 completely different CMSs. Unless someone made a version for Joomla your out of luck.

Dynamic header in Artisteer generated Joomla templates

For a full text tutorial including code snippets please visit: http://tinyurl.com/dhtart at our site.

This tutorial created by Artisteer Help located at http://www.artisteerhelp.com/

When you make these modifications, rather than Artisteer creating the static site name (Headline) and slogan (Slogan text) areas that have to be modified by editing the index.php file, all templates created in Artisteer will automatically get this information directly from Joomla. The best part about using this modification is that anyone using one of these templates can change the site name and slogan from within their Joomla administration panel.
