# Insert some html pages

 * Hi all,
    I created some external HTML pages and inserted in WP via upload (or
   direct copy via ftp). When I call them with menu they work perfectly, but now
   I want to “hide” the full path, e.g. with a permalink. Now the path is: “”[http://www.XXX/wp-content/uploads/newhtmlname&#8221](http://www.XXX/wp-content/uploads/newhtmlname&#8221);.
 * I see three options:
    1) modify the php and then add an echo path to the new 
   pages (personally dislike to touch the php structure, but …)
 * 2) create a new folder where to move the new files, or put them directly in main
   WP folder:
    e.g.: “[http://www.XXX/newhtmlname&#8221](http://www.XXX/newhtmlname&#8221);(
   main folder case), or “[http://www.XXX/newfolder/newhtmlname&#8221](http://www.XXX/newfolder/newhtmlname&#8221);(
   new subfolder case)
 * 3) add a new page with WP system (like my all other standard WP pages) and in
   the new page call the new html via iframe.
    I already tested this solution, the
   method should be as follows:
 * a) in my main css prepare the new page as “blank” (delete the page title, no 
   header, black background, one column 100% wide, etc.),
    b) then in the new page
   add only:
 *     ```
       <style type="text/css">body {margin:0; overflow:hidden;}</style>
       <iframe src="http://www.XXX/wp-content/uploads/HTML/newhtmlname" style="position:fixed; top:0px; left:0px; bottom:0px; right:0px; 
       width:100vw; height:100vh; border:none; margin:0; padding:0; overflow:hidden; z-index:999999; display:block;">fallback text</iframe>
       ```
   
 * Which should be the best solution in your opinion?
    All the solution work, but
   I’d like to have your opinion on the best one (or other eventual solutions).
 * Thank you.
    Mauro

 * In my opinion,
    the best way is #4, which you didn’t mention: create them as 
   normal pages in WordPress.
 * #1 doesn’t solve any problems.
    #2 is easy, but the new pages have no way to 
   show the WP menu (to integrate with existing WP pages) or to be found in the 
   search. #3 won’t be found in a search and is a lot of trouble for hiding the 
   rest of WP.

 * Thank you Joy,
    actually if I did not make those pages as standard pages there
   is a reason. On 14 pages 12 are standard and 2 aren’t, because too large and 
   complex projects. I don’t bore you explaining, just consider that they contain
   18 js and 3 jquery functions, two ext css and some php, 250 k of page. I want
   to handle them as external. I chose the third, because actually not so interested
   the public finds in a search. I don’t understand what you mean by “hiding the
   rest of WP”, could you explain pls? Tks.

 * Well, in #3 you are putting it in a WP page, but using CSS to hide what your 
   theme provides. Having it in a iframe is not very responsive (mobile devices).
   
   At least with #2, you get exactly what you coded. No WP integration (menus, etc.)
   but the way WP works is that the .htaccess file says to load WP only if the file
   does not exist. So it is easy to put standalone files in with WP.

 * thank you, I didn’t consider the mobile devices, u are right.
    I will use the
   new folder solution and see… or put them in main WP folder (?) what do you think…
