Why not do a local install of WP on your machine, and thereby have a “backup”?
Becuase I’d love to have something I can throw on a cd and still navigate around (if possible). I don’t necessarily want it to start up in the root of my local machine’s web server.
Perhaps this could be a solution?
WP on a USB stick
google up one of those web-whacker thingies and have it “spider” your site down to a local copy? The trick there is with all the various ways WP can show posts, you get a rather large static pile of pages. 🙂
@handysolo,
Thanks for the reminder about that. I had thought of it before but it had slipped my mind. It’s messy, but it should work for what I want.
@miklb,
Thanks for that too. A little more work that I’m interested in.
If anyone knows of a plugin that’ll spit out static pages, please let me know. I’ll keep an eye on this thread for a few days.
