Hello guys

I know that for someone this issue is as simple as it can be…but not for me :)

What I have:

Page 1 (Tips) www.mysite.com/tips.html

I have this page with .html ending. I would like to make posts there and add to every new post that . html ending. For example: www.mysite.com/tips/tip-1.html or www.mysite.com/tip-1.html (with no category view)

Page 2 (News) www.mysite.com/news.html

At this moment this page is my MAIN writing place.

I want to have the same for this. For example: www.mysite.com/news/news-1.html or www.mysite.com/news-1.html (with no category view)

General > Writing – http://joxi.ru/12MQKDbSwX502J
General > Reading – http://joxi.ru/MAjMV1gT1ZbY2e

Questions:

How can I organize all this in order to:

1. Save my (“Tips” in the navi menu) /tips.html on that page view + /example-tip1.html post view variant;

2. Save my (“News” in the navi menu) /news.html on that page view + /example-news1.html post view variant;

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards

Andy

    Hi Andy

    Thanks for reaching out. WordPress runs on PHP so it’s not possible, to my knowledge to run an .html page extension.

    Best to start from Posts > Categories. Add all the categories you need. Then for real control over how that content is outputted, use our Post Loop widget. At the bottom of the Post Loop widget you’ll find a field called Additional. There you can enter arguments like:

    cat=x

    Where x is the category ID you want to filter. In this way you can choose on which page you’d like output your posts and where those posts are coming from.

    Head to Settings > Permalinks to alter the structure of your urls and decide a category base if that’s the way you’d like to go.

    Ref: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks

    WPBeginner has a good tutorial here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-change-the-category-base-prefix-in-wordpress/.

    Hope that helps.
