Question - HTML Sidebar

Hi,

I apologize in advance, I don't know how to really explain clearly what I am trying to accomplish, thats why I am posting here rather than searching Google.

I have a site that runs HTML, (I've tried to change to WP, but the earnings decrease when I change it from HTML to WP). Its a pain in the ass each time I try to add a new page because I have to update EACH HTML file to update the sidebar with the new page URL. Is there any code that I can place on each page so it reads one single file that I update to have new pages? Does that make sense?

Hope so. Thanks in advance for the help

You could use php in the html files and use an include for the sidebar

Add this in .htaccess

then <?php include "sidebar.php" ?> in the html files

hope that's what you mean

Use PHP for this reason, as appman said. Make sure to change your URLs to .php but if you want them to be .html or .htm then try to use .htaccess and redirect .html to .phps . In this way your pages shown will be .html but they are basically accessing .phps
