Hi, I've posted these questions on a wordpress thread but it was old so they didn't get answered. I hope it's ok to post them again here. If not, then please point me in the right direction of where I should be asking wordpress questions. I've tried asking on the wordpress forums but with no joy.

Question 1

I have an existing website that I want to redesign in Wordpress because I don't like the current software it's designed with. It's a basic site so this will be relatively easy. The only worry I have is that three of the pages feature an advert that must stay on that particular page (ie: www.mydomain.co.uk/page2name) When I've been playing around with Wordpress any new pages I create are automatically given a domain ending (ie: mydomain.co.uk)

Can I customise this domain ending to be /page2name instead of /?p=527

Question 2
I have a theme which was in Bam Bam's RSS Autoblog download pack called
Adsense Ready Wordpress Theme 01. I can’t suss out how to put my adsense code into the theme so that I can be sure if someone clicks that it is me that will be paid and not the person who developed the theme.

Any suggestions?

Take your existing advert pages and create a *.php file for each. At the top of each page add the following code:

PHP: 
<?php
/*
Template Name: page*name

*/
?>
Upload the pages (and images?) to the directory of the theme you are using. Go into your administration panel and go to write > write page. Select the appropriate template, enter "page*name" for the title and then hit publish. You should then have mydomain.co.uk/page*name available.
