Overview

About this plugin

html ending to your WordPress permalinks. html.

The most common reason to use it is moving an old website to WordPress without breaking its links. html. If you rebuild that site in WordPress and the URLs change, you lose:

  • backlinks from other websites
  • bookmarks and links shared on social media, in emails and in printed material
  • search rankings, while Google works out where every page moved to

With this plugin the WordPress pages can keep exactly the same URLs, so nothing needs to be redirected.

When is this plugin useful?

  • Migrating from a static HTML site. Keep /services.html, /contact.html and every other old URL working after the move.
  • Migrating from another platform such as Blogger, Joomla or an older site builder that used.html URLs.
  • Redesigning a client website where the client wants their existing URLs kept.
  • Directory websites built with GeoDirectory, where listing pages can end in.html while category, location and search URLs stay unchanged.
  • Community websites built with BuddyPress, where member profiles, groups and activity can end in.html.
  • Keeping one URL style across a site that already uses.html for some pages.

Features

  • Add.html to posts, pages and any public custom post type.
  • Turn it on for each content type separately.
  • GeoDirectory support: listing pages end in.html, and category, location and search URLs are left alone.
  • BuddyPress support: member profiles, groups, activity and their directories can end in.html. Profile tabs, group screens and registration URLs stay unchanged.
  • Old links without.html keep working. WordPress either loads the page or redirects to the new.html URL.
  • Rewrite rules refresh automatically when you save, activate or deactivate the plugin. You don’t need to re-save permalinks by hand.
  • A simple settings screen under the.html For All menu in wp-admin.

Does.html help SEO?

Not by itself. html and /about-us/ the same way. The SEO value comes from keeping URLs that already have rankings and backlinks, which is what this plugin is for.

On a brand new site there is no ranking benefit, so only use it if you prefer the style.
