Coolest thing I've learnt today (wordpress permalinks) - GoFuckYourself.com

Jdoughs · 04-09-2008, 11:28 AM

I don't beleive this is new with 2.5, but i do know that alot of people don't realise the capabilities of permalinks.

To the point, the coolest thing I've picked up lately with wordpress is the ability to name pages and posts like static html pages.

%postname%.html will produce hardlinks that look like www.domainname.com/i-fucked-your-mom.html.

Naturally this can be used with any number of options as far as site structure, ie %post_id%/%postname%.htm

Pretty simple and straight forward, now think about adding a cache plugin, to create a txt cache and substructure on your site, and using it as a page generator, or other "CMS" type applications. Gallery maker, "doorway" type pages etc. The possibilities increase with the ability to create "static" html pages, just use your imagination

i believe he's talking about he learned that one can use the permalinking to look like its linking to an HTML file not just a directory... i could be mistaken tho

Yes indeed thats what i was referring to.

I have been running wordpress for years, since it was b2brevolution (i think it was called) ,and permalinks for most likely as long, lol but i never attempted to set permalinks to run html pages (or appear to).

i always used that structure, but never knew about the .html addition, thanks!

See I always thought that was a well known part of "permalinks"... Been doing this for years, because a long time ago someone said that ".html" files ranked higher in SE's. Since then I've realized this is not true, but it's still a habit
