Seems to work very well on my blog. thanks for sharing.

By Grace on Jun 16, 2008

Great Plugin! Works like a charm!

Is there any way to tweak this plugin to exclude specified pages? …or the other way around, only work on one or two pages?

By Andreas on Jun 24, 2008

very cool. Thank you for providing this. Works great on my 2.5.1 install as well.

Thanks, I was searching forever at the wordpress extend website. It worked like a charm!

Thanks a lot

By kingguffster on Jul 11, 2008

It’s amazing how just a few lines of code can have such an impact. Thanks for putting this together! I’ve been scratching my head about what I was doing wrong, but now I know it’s just a WordPress “feature”

By Marios Alexandrou on Jul 22, 2008

How can I modify the plugin to enable my pages to end in “.php” instead of “.html” ?

I’m trying to migrate a site with .php page extensions into a cms wihtout having to do 301 redirects.

thanks

By Michael Erb on Jul 23, 2008

thank you!

does someone know how to make it wp 2.6 plugin ready so it shows up in plugin directory and we can activate and deactivate it?

By jason on Jul 26, 2008

oops! my error, it is wp 2.6 ready to activate / deactivate. cool. ok, but how do we get the static home page to have a static url permalink with .html?

By jason on Jul 26, 2008

Hi. I tried this plugin with WP 2.6.1 and created a page. I then tried to look at the page, and was greeted with this message:

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /wordpress/.html on this server.
Apache/2.0.46 (CentOS) Server at billkath.co.nz Port 80

What is wrong? Isn’t the plugin working for my site? I guess I’ll have to de-activate it.

Cheers,
Kath

how to remove the ending slash?

from
http://www. mysite.com/page.html/

to
http://www. mysite.com/page.html

By robert on Oct 2, 2008

Is there any chance you can write this plugin to work for category pages as well?

Thanks!

By Michael on Oct 19, 2008

Thanks so much. I use Wordpress as a CMS for small sites so this worked perfectly!

By kb on Oct 28, 2008

Thank you.

By Mizpah on Oct 31, 2008

Hi, Please help me. I uploaded the file and added 2 posts and .html is not coming.

Waiting for an early reply

Thanks,
Paul

By paul on Oct 31, 2008

Thanks, it works great!

@ Paul - u can set .html for posts from wordpress -> settings -> permalinks , just type .html after %postname% like this:

/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%.html

By Real HS on Nov 3, 2008

This has become a standard plugin I use on all my installs.

Thanks for sharing!

By Dan Poynor on Nov 5, 2008

Works fine on 2.6.2 but not properly in 2.6.3. The line above the post/page editor where you type the page name does not appear at all.

By Ian Forest on Nov 14, 2008

Works fine for me on 2.6.3

Thanks for sharing

Hi, I am using Wordpress 2.7 and it doesn’t appear to work in this version.

Any ideas what to do?

By Chris Flattley on Nov 18, 2008

Excellent plugin.

Too bad it dont cooperate with the Google XML Sitemaps plugin. My sitemap.xml file isnt valid if I enable .html to pages

By Lars on Nov 20, 2008

hi. Thanks for plugin

perfect.

Regards

By baron on Nov 20, 2008

The XML is valid, but the Sitemap plugin dont add .html to the static pages, so my sitemap points to domain.tld/page but the page is now only avalable from domain.tld/page.html

When accessing domain.tld/page you get a 404, so searchengines relying on the sitemap will be right confused.

By Lars on Nov 20, 2008

Ok…. It donesnt do that on my end. I’ll do some more checking and come back to you.

By Lars on Nov 20, 2008

I’m new to WP but using it as CSM and everyhing seems to work fine w/o he .html exension. What is the advantage of adding .html extension to WP pages?

Thanks

By Rhonda on Nov 21, 2008

Just tested this plugin, on a WP 2.6.3 install.
Plugin doesn’t work here also.
It even mixes up the links!

A link to a page became domain.tld/category/id/post-name/name-of-page

So I disabled the plugin awaiting future updates…

By GJtje on Nov 22, 2008

Made a typo in last comment…

The URL became domain.tld/category/posting-id/name-of-page

By GJtje on Nov 22, 2008

I’m using quite a lot of plugins.
But they’re all needed so I can run my site properly.

I think the redirection plugin may interfere?

By GJtje on Nov 23, 2008

What’s the point of this plugin? What’s the difference with using the Permalink Options and picking a permalink structure like /%postname%.html ?

By Ozh on Nov 23, 2008

The problem with adding the .html extension to your posts, and pages, means your categories are not properly terminated, e.g. yoursite.com/category/wordpress

whereas it should really be: yoursite.com/category/wordpress/

By Bruce on Nov 24, 2008

Doesn’t seem to work on 2.6.5.

By WordPress Lounge on Dec 3, 2008

I’m using WP 2.6.5.

The plugin works great for the most part, but it still allows a slash after my blog page.

Some info for better understanding:

My permalink structure:
/blog/%postname%.html

This is so that all blog posts are in a ‘blog’ directory. For example, a post would appear as:
mywebpage.com/blog/here-is-a-post.html

All of my other pages appear at the root, i.e.:
mywebpage.com/about.html

WP points the blog posts to my ‘blog’ static page (via Settings > Reading > Front Page Displays - then it points to my ‘Blog’ page). So the blog page is:
mywebpage.com/blog.html

And using this plugin, even though it makes WP link to:
mywebpage.com/blog.html
The page still loads as:
mywebpage.com/blog.html/

I’ve even tried using the ‘Smart Trailing Slash’ plugin, but to no avail.

Is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide - and for the great plugin!

By Brian on Dec 6, 2008

hi, funky plug, works fine

but:

1. domain.tld/parent/page.html
works fine

2. domain.tld/parent/parent/page.html
the .html is missing, why?

Question: is it possible to shrink all the parents to one page like:

domain.tld/parent-parent-page.html ?

thats my wish for christmas

rock on.

(in the meanwhile i will try to “hack” your plug - if it works, i will send you a copy…)

By seek on Dec 7, 2008

Thanks for your quick reply!

I’m relatively new to Wordpress, is there some way to work around the fact that the plugin causes POST category pages to display as “.html/”? As I mentioned above, the only time this is an issue on my ‘blog’ page, since it’s a static page functioning as the ‘Index’ page normally would.

I’ve done some searching, but since your plugin is simultaneously the solution to one of my problems and the creation of a new one I’m not having much luck.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

By Brian on Dec 8, 2008

sorry, my bad - pages with parents works…

but, what do you think about my christmas wish ?

greets from germany

By seek on Dec 8, 2008

I have the same problem as some others, I need two of five pages to point to .php files, part of a forum linked to my blog.

Anyone have an idea how I can work around this, leave my permalinks and pages to wp files alone, then have the two forum pages point to .php files?

thanks!
eric

By Eric on Dec 16, 2008

I have activated the plugin but i don see .html at the end of the pages..Suppose i click on one of my post links i don get .html at the end of the link .. what could be wrong…??

By Sid on Dec 18, 2008

Working like a charm on my Site but i have 2 Questions
1) how to redirect a link indexed in search engines to the new permalink?
for example: yoursite.com/category/postname/ to yoursite.com/category/postname.html

2) how do we disable it for pages or what should we do with the code so that it starts working with pages as well. because it is not working with a plugin on my site, “Dagon Design Form Mailer v5.41″

By Janan on Dec 19, 2008

Great plugin.Thank you

By Avsa on Jan 5, 2009

I tested in wordpress 2.7 and not work.
Can you help me please.

By Andre on Jan 7, 2009

Is there a simple way to modify this plugin to add .html to the end of category pages? I’d even be happy with it adding .html to the end of every url (page/post/category/ect)

In order for what I’m after to work, I need to have .html at the end of “every” document. I am trying to setup a system where I write updates to a website in wordpress as posts or pages in an offline environment. Then I want to backup the whole site using wget and publish it online as a static site. (without the cms)

Your plugin almost has it working, but there are still a few category pages that I can’t seem to get .html onto the end of.

By Graphpaper on Jan 16, 2009

The problem that some people are having with your plugin is that the plugin, when downloaded from the WordPress codex, doesn’t work. While the plugin downloaded from this site doesn’t work. You might want to look into that.

By Chris on Jan 17, 2009

Wow… great plugin… thank you so much

Does anyone know if there’s a plugin that makes this work for categories and tags, for example:

By neondragon on Feb 8, 2009

Perfect! Just what I was looking for. I’m using version 2.7 and it worked.

By Saltbar on Feb 9, 2009

my current url is http://www.abc.com/page/aboutus and this url i want to change it to

http://www.abc.com/aboutus …so for this the page should be removed ..i have tried with the several plugins .but still its not working ..
any other options plz help me out..

By mitra on Feb 19, 2009

I’m also having the problem of my google XML Sitemap NOT changing to reflect the added .html to my pages. I tried uninstalling the sitemap plugin and deleting the sitemap to force it to be recreated, but I still can’t get it to work. I’m running Wordpress 2.7. and I have all these plugins installed:
All in One SEO Pack
cforms
Custom Admin Branding
Google Analyticator
Google XML Sitemaps
pageMash
TinyMCE Advanced
wp-cache
XML Google Maps

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I much prefer the natual look of the .html extension, versus Wordpress standard /slash/ treatment.

By Jane on Feb 22, 2009

Oh that darn Browser Cache!!! Yes, that was the problem. Thank you so much. Now it’s working properly. Fabulous little plugin! Thanks!

By Jane on Feb 22, 2009

Hi, thanks for this great script. I make all pages with .html (domain.com/parentpage/subpage.html)

but parent pages looking like domain.com/parentpage.html, i want it like domain.com/parentpage/ only for parent pages.

How can i manage it using your scripts,

Thanks for your time and effort to make this great script again.

By Okan on Feb 27, 2009

Great Plugin, I hated those pages without “.html” at the end.
Works great on WP 2.7.1 !!!

By Antonio on Feb 27, 2009

dude, u are a genius. thank you very much!!!!

By AlexRO on Mar 2, 2009

Thanks a lot. You save me lots of trouble. I’m working with client migrating his retail site to Wordpress without comprising his URL’s. I was about to experiment on modrewrite but your solution is better.

By rev on Mar 6, 2009

I installed this on 2.7 today. I had a wierd problem where the plugin caused the page templates to not be found (I think - because it caused 404’s in the middle of the page, but loaded the archive.php template [i think]).

I unactivated and reactivated the plugin and it started working beautifully.

For anybody who is getting 404’s on all except for the home page you may want to try this. I just put this on a development site but will rollout to the production site now to see if the same thing happens.

By Shaun on Mar 31, 2009

Really good and useful plugin, thanks for share.

By Photowork on Apr 4, 2009

awsome, i had been modifying various include files to acheive the same results.. but i would have had to modify those same files with every wordpress update.

one issue still exists, that is with split pages

if you have a page ie: somepage.html and you use the tag to split it into mulitple pages, the second page link becomes somepage.html/2

argh

By Adam on Apr 6, 2009

@ Mitra,

You have to set up your database.

By Uttam on Apr 9, 2009

Hi there,
i am using this plugin on my site(2.7) since last 6 months and i am quite happy with it as i didn’t face any problem except “Dagon Design Form Mailer v5.41″ but it wasn’t a major issue.

now i want to add a plugin wp-super-cache to my blog, i didn’t give it a try yet on my blog as i was unable to find your .html permalink on their compatible plugin list.
i was just wondering if you would please check your Plugin’s status with wp-super-cache and add it to their compatible plugin list.

regards

By Janan on Apr 10, 2009

Hi, I`m using your plugin - it`s great. But I also use the dagon design sitemap and this causes your plugin to produce a strange result:
when dd-sitemap lists more than 50 links on one site it produces another site and in the original permalink-structure it looks like domain.de/sitemap/2/ but your plugin produces something like domain.de/sitemap.html2/
Any suggestion how to fix this ?

By Markus on Apr 25, 2009

Thank you for sharing this plugin. Its very useful for beginner like me. Finally you save me…

Thank you so much! I have searched high and low for plugins that will do this and even installed two plugins that didn’t work.
@Shaun: thank you so much for your comment, the plugin didn’t work for me at first and I was bummed but then I did what you suggested, with the turning off and on, and it worked!

Plug-in breakes site,
When activated it only add’s .html
and all the pages break.

Any Idea’s

By TechyForever on May 11, 2009

Why end of my catalog is not show .html , this is my website http://www.forextradingsystems.biz ?

By Nipon Ekanarongpun on May 20, 2009

I added the plugin then uninstalled it because while the pages had the .html appended to them, when I clicked on them in the navbar, I got the following error:

Not Found

Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.

This happened with all the pages, and they all had content on them. I’ve since deactivated the plugin hoping to find the cause for this.

By Krystyna on May 26, 2009

Somehow or another, by some miracle, I got it to work. For those having trouble, don’t ask me for guidance, because I’m not sure what I did, besides deactivating it and reactivating.

By Krystyna on May 27, 2009

Fantastic plugin solves me half a day of getting it right the manual way. Tweaked it slightly to .htm and it’s working fine on WP 2.7.1 thanks!

By Karen Marree on May 29, 2009

I’m using your plugin on a 2.7.1 site and I am running into a problem.

In the Settings > Reading settings page, under the “Front page displays:” option. If I change the “Posts page:” to an existing page, that page returns a 404 error. The page works fine until I set this option.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Graydon

By Graydon on Jun 8, 2009

Update to my last comment…

It’s working now. However, the url for my “Posts page” is ending with a trailing slash.
