Inappropriate?Hi John,
You could try the Download Site feature. This is in place for users who want to download their site and then upload to another server. When a site is downloaded it will be in zipped format, this means that it is not possible to view the site unless it is uploaded to a server that supports PHP. This is most likely not what you are wanting to do. For someone to view your site it will need to be published and they will need your URL.
The other option, if you need the website saved on a disk, would be to save each of the pages individually, somewhat like images. If you did this you wouldn't be able to view your site as it would normally function on the Internet, such as navigating between pages, clicking on links, and scrolling up and down a page, but it would give you a way to show the pages of your site without the site being published, or the viewer needing an Internet connection.
If this is something you would like to do:
1. Right click on your home page
2. Click Save Page As
3. Give the file a name, location (such as a disk or desktop), and depending on your system you will choose Web Archive or Completed Web Page
4. The page will now be a saved file
5. You will need to repeat this process for each page of your site that you want saved
Another option would be to take a screen shot of each of your pages saving as an image to your disk.
This may not be exactly what you had in mind, but we're hoping these suggestions will help you.
It's not possible to upload it back to the site builder.
Here is a link to another thread that discusses backing up your site: http://forum.yola.com/yola/topics/can... you may find some useful information there.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Inappropriate?I know sites that go through some bad times.
They lose blog information, like comments or the article itself. Sometimes, the creators of those sites talk about backups that, depending on the last time they were made, get all saved information back to the site.
Is that possible on Yola? I'm making my own site, and backups is one of the things I'm most worried about.
I’m confused
