So I have an old blog that I'm not going to maintain at all. It's currently a self-hosted WordPress site though. Being that vulnerabilities and incompatibilities are discovered all the time I'd like to archive the site as a static site rather than dynamic with MySQL. Does anyone know of a tool that can help do this? I know there are programs that crawl the site but they miss things and don't follow links right all the time. I'm more thinking of something that is a plugin for WordPress if there is such a thing.
Thanks for any help or ideas. Louis L'Amour, “To make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers. One who does not vote has no right to complain.” Visit our archived Minecraft world! | Maybe someday I'll proof read, until then deal with it. |

I think I finally found what I was looking for.
See, every time I searched the web for this topic I've been sent to really old links and plugins that are beyond obsolete. I finally searched again and found Simply Static. So far I'm really liking this though I've only done some basic testing. It seems to do exactly what I'm wanting it to do! I'm still open for others posting their options though. I'm sure this isn't the only option out there. Louis L'Amour, “To make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers.

FWIW, WP Super Cache is another popular plugin for this sort of purpose, assuming you would want to keep it running as WordPress and not a totally separate file tree. It tries a "best of both worlds" approach at using static files where possible and dynamically hitting the DB only when necessary (e.g. being logged in).

Yeah, I use Super Cache for my live sites. In this case though I'm actually looking to ditch to WP backend completely and never update the site again. It's really just to archive it so I can look back at it if I ever want to and not have to worry about the updates and security concerns.
