I'm a tad confused right now, I hope someone can help.

Back on December 26, 2023 I did a capture and got the entire website captured.

Problem is that I can't find whatever function I used to get all of the pages.

I'm looking for whatever I did to get that capture last December and I can't find.. It is almost like I've fallen down the rabbit hole with the White Rabbit and Lois.

So, how do I tell WayBack to capture all of the pages on a site?

I assume that the WayBack would start at the URL I enter, such as website.net, and then capture any pages under that domain.

But - how did I do it before and how do I do it now?

Bob

I don’t know how you did that because the only way you’re able to do so is by using archive-it subscription service.

I figured it out.

As a starting point, when Saving a Page, select the OutLinks option. This causes the capture of all links on the page as well as those linked to on other than the selected page.

Give it a try and see what you get - let me know.
