Hey All...

I have configured Permalinks on my wordpress, but now how found the following,

If you type in a webpage thats in another folder, then wordpress thinks the page doesnt exist and ends in an error.

I want to add my own webpages and then add links from wordpress to these custom pages i make, weather they be forums, gallerys, custom scripts.

So i am guessing i need to add a rule to the .htaccess?

But what? thanks for any help...

...or use a template that allows you to add the extra pages directly into the WP blog.

Thanks for that, i want to create a link, and then it just go to the page, doesnt need to keep the wordpress theme.

I have an issue with the first solution, my wordpress is installed to the root directory, so if i add a folder as you say, wordpress still intercepts?

My WordPress is working way better installed to root, in that i mean i am getting more traffic than before and more bot/feed visits...

You can still make individual pages and place them on the root, too. just be careful not to name any of the new pages the same thing as anything else already in the root.

Should work fine.

This assumes you have access to the root via FTP or some such. Some fully hosted applications will not allow access to the root, just to the W application itself.

Chances are, though, if you're setting up folders, etc., you can access the areas you need to. smile
