How to edit old .html pages created with expresssion web

  • Hi!

    I have dozens of old pages on my site that I originally created with frontpage / expresssion web.

    How can I edit them using wordpress?

    I see them in my wordpress file manager plugin but don’t see a way to edit them within wordpress.

    Ideas?

    Thanks!

    WP will only let you edit theme and plugin files. You’d need custom code that loads other files into your own instance of the code editor to edit through WP. It’d be a lot simpler to edit the files through your host’s file manager. Or download the file via FTP, edit locally, then upload back to the server. I recommend this last option even though it’s more involved because you can then keep backups of the original so that it’s easier to recover from any errors.
