Uploaded html file, get 404 error

  • Want visitors to click on “Privacy” and have a window open with my Privacy Statement in it. Made an html file and uploaded it. When I click on “Privacy” I get a 404 Error, Can’t be found.
    My site is https://www.modernimagemonitor.com
    This is an addon domain.
    Placed it in modernimagemonitor.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/MIM-Privacy-Statement

  • Your url is

    //https://www.modernimagemonitor.com/privacy-statement/ You would need to made privacy-statement a folder under root and make the included file the default page for that folder to use this format.

    Put the html file in the root, remove the caps and dashes from filename (let’s name it privacy.html) and then link to it as:

    //https://modernimagemonitor.com/privacy.html with the target as _blank if you want it to open in a new tab or window (pop ups suck)…

    Think I confused the issue. When I first asked, I still had my privacy and terms as pages on my site, which I don’t want. I want visitors to click on a link and have a window open up with the info.
    (My primary site is https://www.weight-loss-at-last.com.)
    This is for my add on domain https://www.modernimagemonitor.com.
    Struggling with this for a while, head is a confused jumble at this point. Would so much appreciate it if someone could tell me exactly what to name the html file and exactly where to put it on my add on site. Thanks for your time, DB

    Listen,

    You can not call .html file directly from the wordpress.

    Solution:

    1. Install a plugin (Page Links to and activate it) and create a WordPress Page (as usual). There will come an option of (Page Links To). Where you can make the page (Open in a New Window). That’s it.
