 * Okay so I am not 100% which is the best way to do this or how to go about this
   but here it goes.
 * First off I am using a customized version of Tora 1.08 theme on my wordpress 
   blog.
 * Okay so I have been creating some outside content for website that I wanted to
   upload via FTP totally separate from this blog (thought they are about the same
   content) I created all the HTML/CSS for these pages. Now I decided you know what
   why bother paying for 2 websites if I can make them one.
 * So I want to use the pages option on wordpress (Example replace the contact us
   basic page on the navigation bar) to add these HTML pages I created to my site.
   So I want to upload these html pages via FTP through blue host my web host.
 * Now my question is this…
 * Can I set up a way to make it so that when you click on one of my pages in the
   wordpress navigation bar it will link to a link out side of wordpress (It would
   be the URL of my uploaded content via blue host FTP.
 * if not
 * Can I make this HTML content become one of these pages I can create on wordpress(
   For example replace the contact us page?)
 * I am new to wordpress so I am not sure if this can be done. Any help would be
   great, even a totally new option is needed.
 * Thanks!

 * Why are you creating external HTML pages at all? What are you trying to accomplish?

 * I built a database for a video game website. I built a lot of stuff using Javascript
   and such. I built this all before I even made a wordpress. So rather then buy
   another domain for my old project I want to just add it on to my current domain.

 * You could put it in a sub-domain and keep things physically separate, but use
   links in the WP menu to go over there.So, mydomain.com is the WP site and gamedb.
   mydomain.com is the sub-domain. That might be easier with wp in /public-html 
   and gamedb in /public-gamedb (or something like that). I think that would be 
   easier than shoe-horning your HTML and JS into existing WordPress pages.

 * I suppose that could be possible. I am changing the wordpress blog to go hand
   in hand with this new database.
 * So I could make this sub domain and then I could turn one of these options on
   the nav bar in wordpress to link to this sub domain page?

 * Thanks!
 * So far everything is going well except that I can’t seem to add a link to my 
   header for these subdomain pages.
 * The way the header is set up for this theme I can’t seem to find a way to add
   anything except by creating a brand new page through WordPress. Any idea on how
   to add this?
 * Every time I try it just doesn’t end up in the header. Now I don’t really know
   PHP so that’s sort of a problem because I can’t really understand all the header
   code.
