    I have tried to get the source code of my blog to understand it and have more protection in my articles, pages … and insert some script to improve the feelings of my visitors, but I have some error messages :`
    mint@mint /media/mint/USB_DISK $ wget lhommenumerique.wordpress.com/*
    Warning: wildcards not supported in HTTP.
    –2016-11-01 19:55:09– http://lhommenumerique.wordpress.com/*

    1- why is there an answers showing that the web site has moved ?
    2- i know there is a wildcard alert, but in the other hand, there is a 404 error. Why ?
    3- have i another solution to get the source code, knowing that WordPress.com and WordPress.net are different ?

    thank you for your answer

    Hi, the message saying wild cards aren’t supported in HTTP just means “*” won’t download the entire site.

    Let’s start though with your goals:

    to understand it and have more protection in my articles, pages … and insert some script to improve the feelings of my visitors

    If you’re wanting to back up your content to protect it, try these steps:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/export

    Or if you had something else in mind for protecting the site by downloading the HTML, let us know what that is, and we can point you in the right direction.

    Also, did you intend to insert code on the live site? Again please clarify what you have in mind there and we’ll help how we can.

    Oh and as for the 404, that’s exactly what you’ll see if you visit https://lhommenumerique.wordpress.com/* … the page “*” does not exist, and in http, * doesn’t stand for a wild card.
