DESCRIPTION

SiteSucker is an application that automatically downloads web sites from the Internet. It does this by copying the site's HTML documents, images, backgrounds, movies, and other files to your local hard drive. Just enter a URL and click a button and SiteSucker can download an entire web site.

SiteSucker can be used to make local copies of your web sites for easy maintenance. SiteSucker can download files unmodified or it can "localize" the files it downloads, allowing you to browse a site off-line.

SiteSucker is donationware (uncrippled shareware). Pay any amount of money SiteSucker is worth to you or use it for free.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.3.1:
  • Updated UserAgent.plist.
  • Moved SiteSucker help to the server.
  • Added Portuguese localization of SiteSucker.
  • Fixed a bug with the "Check for Updates" command.
  • Logged Files Remaining when the "Log Final Status" option is set.
  • Logged a warning if a link is skipped because the "Suppress Login Dialog" option is set.
  • Simplified the Download Delay setting and used all connections when delaying downloads.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.5 or later.

CERNIUK  Uniquely packed with features, some bugs and a bit counter intuitive on the interface but over all a keeper!

Bugs Encountered

Copied and pasted a URL with embedded username and password in URL into SiteSucker. SiteSucker could not process and provided the "Please enter a valid address that begins with "http://", "https://" or "file://"." After removing the username and password, it kept up with the same error. Not until I deleted the entire contents of the URL text box and typed the URL out manually did SiteSucker stop with the same error.

When giving it the manually typed out HTTP link without username and password, it did manage to pull the credentials from my keychain. That was good but what about being able to enter the username and password in the interface?

Worked

Site sucker did permit me to get the https site downloading.

Interface & Features

The features are actually very nice (thought about bookmarks, well done!) but the organization of the interface is a little unintuitive.

Interface for toolbar need a little work. The Queue, Open File, Open Log need rethinking. The download, next, pause, and stop all can be captured from the system (go get some from the OS packages, ripe for pilfering and intuitive for users). The "skip" is probably better suited with a not symbol, again from the system.

Would like to see something more like iTorrent personally and if it had the finesse of iTorrent, I would drop $19 without thinking about it and recommend it elsewhere.

Appreciate the effort and encourage the developer staff to rethink the interface and perhaps produce a fee based license (aka pro license) that unlocks advanced features like drilling into a streaming video reference files to pull the media from the source (oh, like YouTube… streaming quicktime, etc.)

Giving this a 3 (stars) because it seems to be working and is a decent first cut. (netflix rating scale).

SSNICKERER  Anyone know if SiteSucker has the capability of downloading FLV files? The manual says it scans SWF files, but FLV files are never downloaded for me...

DOOBIEXX  @dev, since you are nice enough to make this great app free for us, donationware I don't think the $5 price tag should be listed as some members might see that and immediately go to something free when they already can get the best in sitesucker for what you think it is worth... It has saved me hours and hours and pain in my hands lol. Thanks for the great app again!

AKROBAT  Well, this used to be my download app of choice when it came to websites. It really was almost perfect.

Tried it out today and for some reason it simply refuses to work. Tried all sorts of sites including my own. "I know" I said to myself, "I'll update it, perhaps my version 2.4.0 is old and no longer works with Leopard".

Unfortunately you can no longer download it and the developer's website is down. Looks like I'll have to switch to BlueCrab; though I'll try SiteCrawler & WebDevil also.
