  • I'm trying to set up a wayback machine downloader line for a WordPress blog that's already down, and I'm running into issues. I tried running it once, and I succeeded, but it added a page for every single comment ever made, and when I went to the index.html for the home page and tried clicking a link, it attempted to go to the currently live version of the page, which doesn't exist anymore. I think it's supposed to instead pull up the downloaded version of the page from my local machine, but the links aren't working properly.

  • Here's the command line I used when downloading it. The exclusion flag didn't seem to work for some reason, and I have a ton of folders called things like "%3flike_comment%3d66879%26_wpnonce%3d4295aac3b6". If it matters, I'm doing this on windows. I installed Ruby locally on windows, and ran this command through the command prompt from that.
