Dot HTML Wordpress Plugin
Posted in: Web Development and DesignDownload the Dot HTML Plugin Here - v1.00 - May 15, 2008 - Works with Wordpress 2.5
What It Does
Wordpress allows a very flexible way for users to specify how they want their post URLs to look like. However, Wordpress only allows this level of customization with post URLs! For your category sections the URLs are forced to be in the form of http://www.example.com/container/category-name/.
This is where the Dot HTML plugin takes care of things. It simply adds the .html extension to all your pages.
But Why?
I DON’T know! Loren, our “Web Strategist” pays me to make this crap! Supposedly it helps with indexing–or prevents some indexing problems–or helps eliminate inbound link issues–it’s always something annoying like that. Total BS from a programmer’s viewpoint. I could have spent the time to write a cool Facebook Widget or something. So I hope someone else might find this plugin useful.
Installation
Step 1: Upload and activate the plugin.
Step 2: Make sure your Permalink structure is set to /%postname%.html
Step 3: Implement the dot_html_next_posts_link() and dot_html_previous_posts_link() functions for your paging links.
Step 4: Post a comment below complaining that something broke.

Hi, this is a great plugin. However, the dot_html_next_posts_link() and dot_html_previous_posts_link() functions doesn’t seem to work on WP 2.3.1.
