Generating multiple HTML pages from a template??

[digi]

If I have an HTML template called 00.html and the code on the template is <img src="00.jpg">

Is there an easy way to generate multiple pages named

01.html with the code <img src="01.jpg">
02.html with the code <img src="02.jpg">

???

Yes, any scripting language can create these pages dynamically from the URL ?query string

The pages could be written with a script if you need static pages for some reason.

[digi]

know any software / wp plugin that can do this?

google "php echo string" and add mod rewrite to make it 02.html rather then page.php?q=2

You need php.

sounds complicated

You can ask in the PHP section of CodingForums.com, and people will tell you exactly, what you need to do. A lot of other places on the Internet too, the more related to PHP, the better.

Also depends if you want those pages dynamically created on the fly, so there actually wont be any 01.html, 02.html on the server, just a lets say /page.php?q=2
Or do you need those actual files

thanks! I'll check it out!

You can do search and replace in Notepad++ too. You don't need to go as far as learning php programming, I guess.

Edit: Open the original template in Notepad++, and then open another one, next to it, and do search and replace there. Do this, save, do the next one, save, and so on.

Well, I'd like the files.

Basically how it works now is this:

-HTML files are created locally on a computer with this name: 01(wp post ID)01.html and with this code <img src="01.jpg"> on them.
- The files get uploaded via FTP
- HTML code gets inserted to wp post
<a href="0101.html><img src="01_small.jpg"></a>
<a href="0102.html><img src="02_small.jpg"></a>

Seems like there should be a faster way

How many files do you need to create. Do you have like 100 or 1,000,000?

[digi]

not even that many, just 12 for each template

I set up like 20 posts in a day though with various templates

I am not sure what it is that you are doing, but if you don't want to do it by hand, you need to use php. If you don't want to learn php, you can ask how to do it, on CodingForums.com.

I assume you are creating html pages for each full sized image, instead of just direct opening them in browser when the user clicks on the thumbs in the WP post?

[Oracle Porn]

icq me ill help.

[Barry-xlovecam]

If it is only 12 files (HTML static pages) do it with a text editor.

Would already be done
===
edit: time times 20? change 12 templates pages adding 20 posts daily?
===

you need 12 static html pages [10](prefix)+(wp post ID)01.html 01 to infinity?

===

Get a programmer.

yep, correct.. so I can put ads on the big pics

[Paul&John]

Aren't there any plugins for that?
Btw the default template can show full photos on html, so there you can add an ad, but I assume you want to add content specific ads (meaning to the same sponsor)..

UUgallery would have been good for this.

Aside from that, you are using WordPress, look through the available plug-ins. There will be several to choose from.

Something like this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-image-gallery/

You can also use: Arles Image Web Page Creator

Notepad ++ for the non-coder (I used to be that guy and life sucked, so I learned to code) a plan of attack is to have your pages in one folder. Do a find and replace on the folder. a becomes b, tomorrow b becomes c, etc.

What is the website url, out of curiosity?
