Need .Html pages in wordpress website.

Hello to all,

I have website in simple html and need to convert that into wordpress.
Now, I don't want to redirect my urls after developing it. As i have more than 500 pages and don't want to create redirection of each URLs.

Example :
Current url is : www.example.com/services/services1.html.

If i will create a wordpress website the url will be www.example.com/services/services1/
and wish to see my old urls with new website.

Any Plugins or tricks??

Thanks

 

It is easily manageable using permalinks feature of wordpress. Wordpress has it's own default feature called permalink to control the how the URLs of your website will look like.

 

Permanlinks and a bit play with .htaccess should do the job

 

You can manage it through the permalinks option available in your wordpress admin area.You can select the option 'custom' in it.

 

Thanks for the help. But it's not showing the perfect page. I used /%Pagename%.html in custom permalink But it's showing 404 Error.

 

When I go to Options > Permalinks and create custom structure: %postname%.html --- why doesn't that work?

Why do none of my posts of pages end with .html?

What am I missing?

 

/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%.html is not going to work, because Permalinks must create Folder names, not File names.
Please try /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/
Let me know if this is working for you?



I have a link to codex but I can't share it as my account is still new.

 

i use the text widget and insert it into the widgets area or inside the article
