My clients current website has 40 html pages with different names , eg home.html about.html services.html
My question is - Do I need to rename all these pages .php ?
Question 2[/#ff0000]
Is it possilbe to add navigation links - like my client has 10 navigation links on the left site of each web page, is it possible to add a page in admin and for this page to be part of the navigation links ?

Hi GB,
Thanks for the post.
No, you don't need to rename your html pages. Most servers allow you to add a customized .htaccess file that tells the server to look for and execute php within html pages. We can provide examples of the .htaccess file code.
Yes. You can setup a section within CMS Builder for Navigation. It can have one field for the navigation name (ex. Services) and another field for the URL it links to (ex. http://yoursite.com/services.html). You can also manually re-order your navigation from within CMS Builder using drag and drop.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks for the post.

Hi GB,
I think that once you get the hang of CMSB you'll find that it's extremely flexible and it will allow you to do just about anything that you can dream up.

Sounds Good [:)]
I am outsourcing all my CMS stuff at the moment and its costing big bucks.
So this software is exactly what I require , so I can add modules if client wants them
Thanks
