  I used my blog for a class that I taught earlier this year. I would like to use it for the same class in 2015. Is it possible for me to archive the current version — including all pages — before substantially revamping it for the new class? Thanks for your advice.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Just set it to Private on the Settings->Reading page. But note that searches will not automatically pick up when a blog is set public again. It can take two months. So that’s a risk.

  Thanks. Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I don’t think that will accomplish what I want. I want to save a snapshot of everything as it is right now and then edit it significantly, but still keep it public. I could literally go through and save each page as html file or pdf, but I was hoping for an easier solution.
