Getting Started

The SiteSucker window shows the Web URL (Uniform Resource Locator) being downloaded, the current status of the download, and the toolbar.

To get a download going, follow these steps:

  1. Enter an Internet address into the Web URL text field.
  2. Press the enter key and SiteSucker will go to work.

SiteSucker will download the page, scan it for any links, and download the links.

The status of the download appears in the lower section of the SiteSucker window.

When files are downloaded, they are saved in the Download Folder. By default, the Download Folder is the Desktop, but this can be changed in the Download Settings dialog.

To download multiple sites, you can open multiple SiteSucker windows or queue up downloads within a window.

SiteSucker lets you save all the information about a download (including the Web URL, download settings, and queue) in a document. This allows you to create a document that you can use to perform the same download whenever you want.

If SiteSucker is in the middle of a download when you choose the Save command, SiteSucker will pause the download and save its status with the document. When you open the document later, you can restart the download from where it left off by pressing the Resume button.
