hi! so ive modded a members only community on livejournal for a while, but its not in use anymore. i want to keep an offline archive of the posts and comments in case i ever want to share or go back and view, but i'm having a little trouble putting together the right wget command.

i was originally putting this into terminal:

wget --no-check-certificate -r -c -p -k -E -e robots=off https://username:password@www.domain.com

but when id load the html file it would show as logged out and wouldn't show any posts (members only so posts are private). so i logged back in, saved my cookies using a firefox extension, and then amended the command so it would save the pages logged in as me.

wget --no-check-certificate -r -c -p -k -E -e robots=off --load-cookies cookies.txt https://username:password@www.domain.com

that worked! but only for the first page of posts. when i clicked to see previous posts it logged back out again.

any ideas? or suggestions for different tools to use? im a bit of a noob but eager to learn more!

thanks in advance
