I don't understand how to use wgHTML
I am using Drupal 5.5 and Debian etch.
I installed and activated the module, no problem. I have read the documentaion, but I don't understand what to do.

That file does not seem to exist.

places nodes in the search index automatically,
I have no idea what this mean. The search index?

note: I've moved this thread out of module development as it has nothing to do with developing a module but rather support for a module.
after downloading and extracting the wghtml module from drupal.org
the config.php file is located at wghtml/wghtml/config.php
thats what
drwxr-sr-x 2 27743 27744 4096 Feb 24 2007 wghtmlmeans. Thats another directory, open it and discover the config.php filethe search index = what drupal uses to allow the search feature to find nodes. indexing your site is typically done at administer -> search settings
not trying to be antagonistic here, but in a earlier discussion, you complained that many projects don't have demos, this one does see: http://www.webg8.com/h/wghtml_home where you will also find more documentation and module specific support.

I still don't understand
Okay, thank you for the information. But I still don't understand how to get wghtml to do anything.
If I want to load a static html file in drupal, what do I do? Am I supposed to search every time? Let's suppose there is an html file I want to make available for others to read, how do I link to that? Is it in content, or what? A demo is nice, but basic documentation is essential.

Unfortunatley I don't have time right now to install this module and help you figure out how to use it.
It imports (term used lightly) pages into drupal and then allows them to be search using the drupal search. Thats the basics of it.
Teh html pages are stored in a seperate folder from my short reading, you can then point to those html files using links in drupal and these links will pull the HTML pages into your content area and allow them to be searched using drupal search.
Registering over on the site, linked to the project page and linked above as the developer asked may get you a faster more direct response on use.
I'll book mark this thread and If I have time later, I'll install it and try to walk you through it.
