   Hi there guys, I've recently been asked to design a site but make it a Wordpress CMS....and thanks to the great instructions from Ian on this site it got me far...but not quite far enough....

   I actually need to make this a hybrid site, two pages need to be controlled by the CMS, and 3 others can be (and kinda need to be because the format does not lend itself to blog format) regular HTML.

   I can code the pages that don't need to be HTML as regualr...but how would I develop the links so they link to the wordpress pages then to the regular HTML pages?

   I would probably make them page "templates" and then assign 2 empty pages in the WP dashboard to use the custom templates. then they'll also be in your dash and easier to link to. but you can always use regular linking http://www.mysite.com/custom-page-1.html or whatever filetype it is.

   That link didn't work, would you mind sending it again?

   Hummm...and since I'm very new to this wordpress stuff, what is considered a "template" here?

   I started this as a regular site, then using Ian's instructions on the site, inserted the code into the proper places, applied CSS styles, and I have it looking good.

   The menu doesn't seem to work either! In Dashboard, says this theme does not support custom menus...

   Thanks for your help!
