# Problems with Permalink structure

 * Hello,
 * I am a Worpress newbie and would like to rebuild an existing static webpage using
   WordPress. So I use WP as a CMS and not as a blog.
 * The structure of the Worpress page should be as close to original as possible:
 * The original structure looks like this:
 * /index.php
    /contact.php /produkt_A/index.php /produkt_A/details.php /produkt_B/
   index.php /produkt_B/details.php …
 * To rebuild this structure I have set the Permalink option to:
    /%category%/%postname%.
   php
 * After creating the category “produkt_A” I was able to create an aticle with the
   Permalink **/produkt_A/index.php**. The URL **myPage.xy/produkt_A/index.php**
   was redirected to **myPage.xy/produkt_A** but this not a problem.
 * After creating a second article with the permalink **/produkt_A/details.php**
   the URL **myPage.xy/produkt_A** shows both articles “Index” and “Details”.
 * I blieve this is because the call to “myPage.xy/someCategory” shows a list of
   all articles in the categroy “someCategory”.
 * Is there any way to disable this function?
 * **This is what I need:**
    myPage.xy/produkt_A/index.php –> show article “Index”
   myPage.xy/produkt_A –> show article “Index” myPage.xy/produkt_A/details.php –
   > show article “Details”
 * **This is what I have:**
    myPage.xy/produkt_A/index.php –> redirect to myPage.
   xy/produkt_A myPage.xy/produkt_A –> show category list myPage.xy/produkt_A/details.
   php –> show article “Details”
 * Thank you very much for your help!

 * You could try using nested pages instead of categories.
    1. Delete the two categories you created
    2. Create two pages, produkt_A and produkt_B with the Index page contents
    3. Create the details pages, setting the product pages as parent
 * Note that this way you won’t have a separate index.php (you said you wanted to
   keep the _structure_). Why do you want to have links ending with .php if the 
   pages aren’t PHP pages?
