About this archive
adhustler.com ran on WordPress from 2008 to 2019. This is the same content rebuilt as flat HTML files — no database, no PHP, no plugins, nothing that needs patching.
What is here
- 419 posts, every one that was published, from 2008 to 2019.
- 4370 comments, threaded exactly as they were.
- 291 images and audio files, downloaded and served from this archive.
- 19 categories, plus the original About page.
How it works
Every page is a static .html file you can open directly — from a web
server, a USB stick, or a folder on your desktop. Search runs entirely in your browser
against a pre-built index, so there is no backend to run and nothing is sent anywhere.
Copy the folder anywhere and it keeps working.
What changed from the original
- URLs are unchanged. A post that lived at
/some-post/still lives at/some-post/, so old links and bookmarks keep working. - Facebook Like buttons were removed — one was injected into all 419 posts and none of them still function.
- YouTube embeds and dead Flash players became plain links, so no third-party frames load and the pages work offline.
- Images were pulled locally. Ninety-six were missing from the live site and were recovered from the Internet Archive; 3 could not be found anywhere and are marked in place.
- Comment forms are gone, since there is no database to write to. Existing comments are preserved in full.
Rebuilding it
The scripts that produced this archive live in _tools/, and the raw
WordPress export they read lives in _data/. Running
python _tools/build.py regenerates every page from that JSON without touching
the network.
