So what about pages? I found a great plugin called .html on Pages which will add a .html extension to all of your pages. This plugin will also automatically remove the .html extension from any pages that are nested  as a parent page. Soooo: yourwebsite.com/mypage.html will turn into yourwebsite.com/mypage/mysubpage.html.

We ran into a problem, well not so much a problem because the plugin does what it is supposed to do, but we want to not add .html to the end of the blog page. We want /blog.html to be just /blog so we had to make a few modifications to the plugin. If you are comfortable with php the mod is small and here it is:

Add the following code where ever you want inside of the plugin. This code filters any instance of /blog.html and returns /blog.

function blog_permalinks_page_link($permalink, $page) {
$pos = strpos($permalink, “/blog.html”);
if ($pos !== false) {
$permalink = str_replace(“/blog.html”,”/blog”,$permalink);
}
return $permalink;
}
add_filter( ‘page_link’, ‘blog_permalinks_page_link’, 10, 2 );

Next you will need to alter the html_page_permalink() function and add the following code to the top of it:

$string=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$pos = strpos($string, “/blog.html”);
if ($pos !== false) {
switch_to_blog(1);//We are using WPMU if you are not you won’t need this line.
wp_redirect( get_option(‘home’).str_replace(“/blog.html”,”/blog”,$string), 301 );
exit();
}else{
$pos = strpos($string, “/blog”);
if ($pos !== false) {
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] =str_replace(“/blog”,”/blog.html”,$string);
global $wp;
$wp->parse_request();
}
}

The above code makes the redirect of any hits on /blog.html to /blog (which shouldn’t happen because of the link filter) and hard-codes the request-URL so WordPress thinks it’s pulling from the page /blog.html when it’s now on /blog. That’s it, pretty simple… If you are not good with php you can download the modified plugin here: http://webdevstudios.com/downloads/html-on-pages.zip

I’m sure this plugin could easily be modified to work with other extentions like .htm or .php, which could cut down on the amount of 301 redirects you would have to make when migrating to WordPress which by the way everybody running a blog or basic CMS should be doing!

Have you ever wanted to display a one time popup announcement message to any new visitor on your WordPress blog or website? Well our WP-Announcements plugin would be perfect for you! Your one time popup per visitor announcement could be a featured post, an important message, a community notice, an advertisement, a survey form, an email subscription form, an emergency alert or anything you can publish in a WordPress post. Popup announcements will appear using the popular ShadowBox JS or ThickBox WordPress plugins.

Perhaps you would like to periodically display a scrolling marquee accross the top of your WordPress blog or website with certain news alerts or messages. Well WP-Announcements does that too. Active marquees will scroll the title of any post you specifiy and link directly to that post.

All announcements can be set from the post page and every announcement created is added to a list on the “WP-Annoucements” settings page so they can easily be managed.

This plugin has been tested and works on WordPress 2.8.2 and WordPress MU (WPMU) 2.8.2.

Hovering over a plot will display the title of the post, address, and also a thumbnail from the post if any images exist. Easily add and delete a single or multiple addresses to each post.

Viewing a single post displays only addresses attached to that post/page, viewing any other page will show the most recent plots across your entire site. You can also set a custom title and description for each address saved. If no title or description is entered the post title and excerpt will be used.
