I think the easiest way would be to hack the Core … _but_ changes would be lost with an update.
You could fork so the changes wouldn’t get wiped … _but_ very bad idea
I have been working on a plugin It’s very much pre-alpha but feel free to study it in hopes it can give you an idea of how to write your own plugin.

Need hack the core? Do you have other idea?

What most people do is set up another site on a different domain for pages, using wordpress or ghost or something else. Then you add a shared navigation across the top and you’re done.
Here’s how Namati does it with WordPress:

You are right - there is no way. Discourse is not a content management system but a discussion platform. You need to set up another site for the rest of your pages.
Or, like @Mittineague says, make it happen by creating a plugin to share with the community. I think it would be valued - especially for sites that just need one or two more pages, or who really don’t need a full fledged website to accompany their community discussions. I’d probably use it for some of my communities! 🙂

@kudouyuzi,
I don’t think this feature is going to be implemented soon in Discouse. Please see below topic.
[https://meta.discourse.org/t/adding-custom-static-pages/5497](https://meta.discourse.org/t/adding-custom-static-pages/5497)
You can do as Jeff mentioned in the post or we have a plugin for this feature but it doesn’t seem to work stable yet.

So, as said by @tobiaseigen, it is better to host your custom webpages in your domain([www.example.com](http://www.example.com)), and host discourse in sub-domain([forum.example.com](http://forum.example.com)).

> 正如 @tobiaseigen 所说，最好将自定义网页托管在你的域名（[www.example.com](http://www.example.com)）下，而将 Discourse 托管在子域名（[forum.example.com](http://forum.example.com)）下。
如何配置 Discourse Docker，使其与 Nginx 在同一服务器上运行以实现这一目标？我知道 Nginx 支持反向代理。是否有在此模式下设置 Discourse 的说明？
