| Jul 7, 2017 at 8:41 | comment | added | Seth | One of the my comments contains a link to httrack they likely used a similar software or, as it's kind of what they do, wrote their own tool to do it. It's likely that they automated the process. At a high level the process involves doing a "basic save" of every individual page of the site and afterwards editing the source code of each of those saves to refer to your local copies. You can totally do the same thing but it takes a lot of effort. For simple pages tools like httrack would be able to help you out but with dynamic content you're usually reaching some kind of dead end. | |

| Jul 7, 2017 at 1:55 | comment | added | LuxBellum | (I could not edited my comment so i added new) Since these sites were not designed to local save, which tool did web archive used to save them in a better way than i can? And if any special tools were used and they were saved as only basic save, why cant i download it if im trying to do the same that web archive did? | |
