title: "Archiving Sites"
date: 2019-08-02T22:42:16-04:00
draft: false
---
I have several old Wordpress sites that are now only alive for archival purposes. I've been trying to migrate off of Wordpress since I don't like having yet another system to manage. Luckily for archival type sites, I don't need the whole backend of Wordpress since I don't actually need any CRUD functionality. (Well I need the R part)
Solution... wget comes to the [rescue](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/538865/how-do-you-archive-an-entire-website-for-offline-viewing#538878)
Thanks to user [chuckg](https://stackoverflow.com/users/63193/chuckg), I now know you can run `wget -m -k -K -E https://url/of/web/site` to get a full offline copy of a website.
[Joel Gillman](https://stackoverflow.com/users/916604/jgillman) expanded out the command to `wget --mirror --convert-links --backup-converted --adjust-extension https://url/of/web/site`
There are other solutions in that stack overflow post, but something about the simplicity of `wget` appealed to me.
