The Web archiving Panel

The new web archiving function replaces previous HTML export. The function is license controlled and any HTML exports that were enabled on the website prior to the upgrade to version 4.3 will be automatically migrated to Web archiving. The new function give you better control of archiving, and allows you to archive based on the personalisation of your website.

  • User - Here you select a user and then the website is archived based on that user regarding their permissions and any personal settings on the website.
  • Anonymous - This will archive the website based on a user who is not logged in. I.e. it only takes public pages.
  • Extractor -The website is archived based on a user who can see everything, i.e. all permissions.

When you click Add, a new window opens where you can choose one of the three options above:

Then click OK. You can now also see the scheduled job in the schedule manager under the server. The job will be run overnight. If you have started more jobs, they will be executed in order and one at a time.
