Permalink problem.

Hi. I am not sure how to deal with Permalinks.
I have an old html site which is very strong in Google.
All the pages end in .html and some pages are within folders within folders.
eg: http://www.otwaysaccommodation.com.au/cape-otway-accommodation/cape_otway_accommodation.html
You will also notice that part of this url has underscores.
How can I retain the same structure of the url in a WP site?
Thanks. Mark.

 

Well, this can be done by using .htaccess.

But I would suggest you copying all "old" content to WP and redirecting old URLs to new ones (also via .htaccess).

 

I have never dealt with .htaccess. Don't really know what it is. How do I do this??

 

This should help: http://www.webforgers.net/mod-rewrite/mod-rewrite-syntax.php (If you won't understand it, ask experts here)

 

Thanks. Will look into it.
