Spun Web Archive Forge

Publish with receipts. Preserve your site’s history, even when platforms misbehave.

Why Spun Web Archive Forge exists

Content gets throttled or pulled. Domains get lost when someone misses a renewal. Servers hiccup. Your words should not vanish. Archive Forge saves a public snapshot of each page on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, then gives you clean tools to track, audit, and prove what you published and when. It is an answer to moderation overreach and a safety net for your memories, releases, and milestones. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

What you get

  • Automatic on publish with optional delay and retries. Queue handles the grind. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
  • Per-post “Submit to Archive” links in All Posts and All Pages for on-demand saves. Recently submitted items show clear status so you do not double-tap. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
  • Dual methods: Wayback Save API (no keys) or Archive.org S3 API with proper authentication. Pick what fits the job. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
  • Centralized credentials with encrypted storage and a visual Test Connection that shows pass or fail. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
  • Submission history with timestamps, archive links, success, failed, pending, and CSV export. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
  • Status where you work: list columns in Posts and Pages, plus a post editor meta box. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
  • Queue controls: live statistics, manual processing, clear completed or failed, configurable intervals and retries. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
  • Cleaner error handling with plain messages for timeouts, DNS, and SSL issues. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}

Archive Forge perks

  • Priority support and premium updates. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
  • Enhanced tracking and reporting for submission results. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
  • Professional branding and extended documentation. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}

How it works

Two save paths

Simple Save uses the Wayback “Save Page Now” method, no API keys required. Good default for fast snapshots of public URLs. API Save uses Internet Archive’s S3-style API with your Access Key and Secret for collection control and a robust fallback. Credentials live in a dedicated page, and the Test Connection gives real-time feedback. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}

Queue and history

New publishes and on-demand submissions land in a queue. Processing runs in the background on a schedule. Entries write to the submissions history as they are queued and when they succeed or fail, with clickable archive links. CSV export is available on the history screen. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

Admin touches your team will like

  • Tabbed settings with direct links to history and queue. CSV export on the history page. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
  • Archive.org @username display for your public archive page, with show or hide controls in the same section for clarity. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}
  • Clean uninstall options, up to complete data removal when you need a fresh slate. :contentReference[oaicite:16]{index=16}

What is new lately

  • Queue Settings tab added with stats, controls, and configuration. AJAX powered, real-time updates. :contentReference[oaicite:17]{index=17}
  • Submissions History appears immediately when items are queued. Status updates live as processing runs. :contentReference[oaicite:18]{index=18}
  • UI cleanups and fixes for username display controls, plus layout improvements for clarity. :contentReference[oaicite:19]{index=19}
  • Migration reliability for submissions history table creation and versioned DB upgrades. :contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20}
