Description from extension meta

Capture web pages to local device or backend server for future retrieval, organization, annotation, and editing.

Image from store WebScrapBook
Description from store WebScrapBook is a browser extension that captures the web page faithfully with various archive formats and customizable configurations, for future retrieval, organization, annotation, and editing. This project inherits from legacy Firefox add-on ScrapBook X. Features: 1. Capture faithfully: A web page shown in the browser can be captured without losing any subtle detail. Metadata such as source URL and timestamp are also recorded. 2. Customizable capture: WebScrapBook can save selected area in a page, save source page (before processed by scripts), or save page as a bookmark. How to capture images, audio, video, fonts, frames, styles, scripts, etc. are also customizable. A web page can be saved as a folder, a ZIP-based archive file (HTZ or MAFF), or a single HTML file. 3. Page editing: A web page can be highlighted, annotated, or edited before or after a capture. 4. Organizable collections: Captured pages can be organized in the browser sidebar using one or more scrapbooks, and each scrapbooks holds a hierarchical tree structure to organize data items. Notes using HTML or markdown format can also be created and managed. (*) 5. Fulltext searching: Each scrapbook can be further indexed for a rich-feature search (using title, fulltext, comment, source URL, create time, modify time, etc.). (*) 6. Remote access: Captured data can be hosted with a central backend server and be read or edited from other devices. Alternatively, a scrapbook can generate a static site index and be distributed as a static web site. (*) 7. Mobile support: WebScrapBook supports mobile browsers such as Firefox for Android and Kiwi browser. You can capture and edit the web page from a mobile phone or tablet. 8. Legacy ScrapBook support: Scrapbooks created from legacy ScrapBook or ScrapBook X can be converted into WebScrapBook-compliant format for usage. (*) * All or partial functionality of a starred feature above requires a running collaborating backend server, which can be easily set up using PyWebScrapBook. (*) * An HTZ or MAFF archive file can be viewed using the built-in archive page viewer, with PyWebScrapBook or other assistant tools, or by opening the index page after unzipping.

  • (2025-03-03) Gustav Palán: 03.03.2025 The best offline website saver I know. Just configure it and it saves everything or whatever is requested while browsing the browser. Unfortunately, Scrapbook stopped working for me today because of the Chrome browser, so I'm thinking about replacing Chrome with another browser, because Scrapbook is more valuable to me than anyone from Google might think with their obsolescence. I managed to migrate from Firefox to Chrome, going back probably won't be a problem Is there another solution? Thank you very much for the extension, Master of Development.
  • (2024-12-05) The Secret: Excellent! You just need to learn how to use it!
  • (2024-09-21) Леонид Рысев: Thank you for a GREAT app!!!! A lot of year I could not find the same!
  • (2024-08-19) Igor Varfolomeev: A must-have extension. Few years ago, I kept using old Firefox (with NPAPI plugins) before this extension was ported to Chrome and became mature enough (and now maybe I'll have to block Chrome updates that would break Manifest v2 extensions). The web server backend requires some effort to setup (I imagine this could be a bit tricky for those who are not familiar with Python), but it provides a whole new level of flexibility.

  • (2024-03-02) Vladimir Kiselyov: this functional can use with standart Chrome function, without this extensions
  • (2024-01-19) Toyosi Adebola: i can't capture page. it keeps tell me this Fatal error: Failed to download "WebScrapBook/data/20240119134740999/index.html": Unable to download to the folder what can i do
  • (2023-06-04) ru ve: I was hoping to save a complete webpage for offline use. I enabled the extension and just tried the default "Capture Page" feature. I got a new dialog box to save every single resource on the page, like every image and css file. What an absurd. The page I wanted to save contained a very simple gallery of thumbnails linked to larger images. The extension saved only the thumbnails, and they were still linking to the large image online. I find this extensions completely useless, and very user unfriendly.
  • (2023-03-22) Notnilc: I have very limited programming experience so there might be some dunning kreuger at play here, but this much, much, much, MUCH better than httrack or cyotek webcopy. The documentation is great and all, but I feel like most of it could be made redundant with a simple video tutorial.

  • (2021-06-12) Li Su: Agree with Clarence Domesticus Wonderful extension, as a ScrapbookX user for years, I think this extension is able to do almost the same as scrapbookX, and additional features of PyWebScrapBook backend make it more useful. I can stop using the now very very slow old version of firefox eventually. Thanks a lot.

  • (2021-03-15) Clement Maloney: I am sorry to have to give this promising extension 1 star, however I have spent 5 hours trying to save a page and the pages linked from that page. You can play around with depth and filters (God knows what "Each following line is a full URL (with chars following a “#” or space stripped) or a regular expression (e.g. “/^http://example\.com//”). " in the options is supposed to mean,). This is by far the most frustrating, and time wasting Chrome extension that I have ever installed. It simply does not work! Lastly, I tried both the Chrome and Firefox versions and only ever end up with the orginal page being saved i.e. no subpages.

  • (2021-02-22) Алексей: Страницы вроде как сохраняет, но ссылка приложения view captured pages не активна, от чего нет возможности посмотреть список сохраненных страниц
  • (2021-01-23) Дмитро Доденко: При сохранении вкладки требует подтверждения для каждого файла. А если их сотни..
  • (2020-11-10) Reng: Worked perfectly with my old scrapbook files, thank you!! Can import and handle thousands of entries with no problem. The search function is infinitely better than the old scrapbook. Once again thank you so much for this extension.

  • (2020-10-07) Clarence Domesticus: This is my first experience using any such scrapbook extension & setting up the backend server (PyWebScrapBook, as noted in the extension overview). Overall, I'm very satisfied. It does fail on some sites, but after spending some time tweaking the settings I've been able to use it successfully on most sites I've needed it for. There are plenty of options & features, definitely more than enough to handle nearly any task for which I've needed this extension. I like that it's an ongoing project that's still being updated regularly. I see there are a number of negative reviews from individuals who are upset that this doesn't work like some other scrapbooks they've used in the past (EVEN SOME IN ALL CAPS). This seems to be a common thing reviewers like to do. In my opinion these comparisons are somewhat of an unfair basis for 1-star & 2-star ratings. If there are other options that some users enjoy using more, they should use those extensions/scrapbooks instead. I think it would be absurd, for example, if were to go out of my way to purchase a pack of markers specifically by BrandX and then left negative reviews because they're not BrandY, rather than evaluating BrandX based on its own qualities. Some 1-star reviews are clearly written by users who couldn't bother to follow basic configuration instructions or even take a simple look around the menus/folders. I wish ppl would stop doing this s*** not just here but in all their reviews. I just checked github, and it looks like are commits from as recently as 3 hours ago; like I said, this is an ongoing project, and I'm excited to see where the contributors take it. My only criticism as of right now is that, after updating my chrome, firefox, and edge extensions, and updating to the newest server version, chrome extension v 78.2 (the most recent version available in the store) is giving error 'Server app requires extension version >= 0.79.0'. But the FF extension is working perfectly fine. Again, I'm seeing github activity as recently as today, so anticipate that this will be resolved very soon.
