OK, so I don't actually have the answer
So to that end I was hoping you might be able to share best way to save / copy our poetry and catalogues
Thanks in advance

Copy and paste is about it.
Screenshots otherwise.
Writing directly on to the site is mad, though. I can't believe many members have done it. 😬

AFTER the unfair ruling in 2013, where i lost a lot of spills due to the speedy KICKING ME TO THE CURB, i lost a lot of ink that i failed to copy.
Since those troubling days, i PDF everything that matters to me that i've posted here.
There is no easy way to copy Your ink. One by effin One, Y'all gonna have to copy and paste. i feel for You Prolific spillers.

Can highly recommend Evernote as a good way to catalogue, but it would be a case of copying and pasting I’m afraid.
Thankfully I back up once a month so it hasn’t hit me too bad. Which is just as well because I had a look and I have 3147 from my 14 years here 😱

This is for those of you who want to make copies of all of your poems, which will take about 5 to 30 minutes depending on how many you have and how fast your download speed is.
1) Download, install, & launch the freeware program HTTrack Website Copier. You can find it at:
https://www.httrack.com
2) create a project name such as DUP ARCHIVED
3) create an empty folder on your computer to store webpage copies in. You may opt to include the date, so you know when you last archived. Example: 2021_06_29_JohnnyBlaze
4) choose action : Download web site(s)
5) Hit the ADD URL button, then enter the address of your poem list. Example:
http://deepundergroundpoetry.com/poem-list/JohnnyBlaze/
6) Hit the SET OPTIONS button, then the SCAN RULES TAB. Paste over the existing text with the following parameters:
+*.png +*.gif +*.jpg +*.css +*.js -ad.doubleclick.net/* -mime:application/foobar
-*/*login*
-*/*register*
-*/*forum*
-*/*poets*
-*/*questions*
-*/*search*
-*/*-poems*
-*/*poems-*
+*/poems/*
7) Hit the FINISH button, which begins the archiving. Keep in mind, the program is also copying images from each of your poems pages. So when the "files written" reaches 5X the amount of poems you have, it's a good bet that you are finished. If you have 400 poems, then copy at least 2,000 files.
8) Hit CANCEL when you wish to stop the program. Or otherwise you will end up archiving ALL of DUP, which would probably take at least a week.
9) Hit CANCEL again. Don't ask me why.
10) In the folder you created on your computer, you will find a file named "index.html". This is a copy of your poem list linked to copies of all of your poem pages. It can be browsed offline. Just click on the index.html file to have your browser open it. The archiver works alphabetically, so doublecheck the poems at the end of your list to see if they copied.
The parameters included in Step 6 are meant to discourage HTTtrack from archiving some, not all, of the other pages hosted on "deepundergroundpoetry.com".
Yes, Step 8 ( guessing when the program is finished ) is obnoxious, but it can't be avoided. Every poem here is hosted in a single folder named "deepundergroundpoetry.com/poems/ " There is no way to distinguish who wrote what in order to exclude other authors.
Good luck!
