[Required?] Yes [Notes] A static page has two meanings when it comes to WordPress. A static page is any page that may look like your blog web page design pages, but isn’t incorporated into the PHP coding structure. It just has the look but is actually a separate, stand alone web page. In WordPress, a Page is a pseudo-static page. It stands alone as it is not part of the chronological flow of the blog, but it is not a physically separate web page. It is generated by the program. I will need both. Any blog needs Pages like “About”, “Contact”, and so on. A genealogy blog takes advantage of genealogy software to produce web pages of content, data, and information. While some of these can be cleaned up and inserted into a WordPress Page, some cannot and will have to become static and separate pages. Because I want a uniform look for the entire site, I will need to understand how WordPress Themes and web design works to clean these up for inclusion and integration. Static web pages also take up space on the hosting server as they are static HTML/XHTML pages. I’m not sure how many the genealogy blog will require, maybe 5-20. Look for an average of 10 static web pages at an estimated 60K each (with images) is 600K to add to the total file storage requirements. [Feature]
