  Liron on “Freezing” WordPress March 02, 2015

  Thanks for this post! Six years passed but it’s still useful. :) Just wanted to share my two cents.

  I used wget with: --mirror --convert-links --adjust-extension --page-requisites --no-parent --no-host-directories

  so I got the correct extensions but still had question marks in my filenames. To get redirection working, this is what I used in my .htaccess:

  DirectoryIndex index.html
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteBase /
  
  # index.html, feeds
  RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^feed=(.+)$
  RewriteRule ^(index\.html|)$ index.html\%3Ffeed=%1? [NE,R,L]
  
  # index.html, with parameters
  RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+)$
  RewriteRule ^(index\.html|)$ index.html\%3F%1.html? [NE,R,L]
  

  I didn’t care about trackbacks or xmlrpc, and I wanted the new URLs to be visible to the user (hence the R). If your blog is under a subfolder you can use a different base or replace “index.html\%3F%1.html” with “/blog/index.html\%3F%1.html”, for example.

  The NE is to handle the question marks in the filenames. You can avoid them by using --restrict-file-names=windows with wget.
