From the Dashboard go to Settings and then Permalinks, select "Custom Structure" and put /%postname%/
Good luck!

You are running a non-Wordpress site, right? If so, is the site all static pages? I have some software that will redirect whatever you want to call your link to any page you want. PM me if you like.

These are very simple if you are aware of .htaccess files.
in the htaccess file, you just need to write the code to redirect the link www.mysite.com/name-of-article to www.mysite.com/name-of-article.html

example,

--------------------------------
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/ http://www.mysite.com/$1.html [NC,L]
------------------------------

the above code if you place in .htaccess file, would redirect all your www.mysite.com/any-name-of-article to www.mysite.com/any-name-of-article.html

but this is very technical stuff, better some expert handle this, else modifying htaccess can even screw up all website link handling/redirection.

I can manage. Thanks for your help.
