 * Hi,
 * I’ve looked into Permalinks but I’m not comprehending this.
 * I have the default page naming convention (?p=12).
 * I need to name these pages “Mypage1”, “Mypage2”, etc.
 * How do I do this?
 * Also, Can these have an .htm extension?
 * Thanks!

 * Look at using different permalink structure–see [Permalinks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Permalinks)

 * You can create a page called MyPage, and use the Pages Link To plugin to ‘redirect’
   to your xxxxx.htm file.

 * I went to Permalinks and used the Custom Structure with the
    “/%postname%” option.
 * Now the page will not render using view or the link provided on the edit page.
 * The reason I’m asking for this approach is to enable me to perform SEO for this
   blog. I made four pages using a custom theme. Well, it’s really the same theme
   with the sidebar and footer removed. I need to link to these from the main blog.
 * Now the 64K question(s)… Can I revert back to one of the other permalink options,
   be able to link to them and using the SEO plugin properly assign meta tags and
   descriptions for search engine marketing?
 * Thanks!
