If you don’t feel like scripting yourself (even though you can learn a lot from it) there is sites like http://recovermywebsite.com which recovers your site from the cache, and i think it is free.

Thank you very much for your script, I have posted a modified version of this script in this gist: https://gist.github.com/1504425 . It adds random sleeping to make sure that google doesn’t block the crawler.

Thank you Guy,

I have seen the files folder but it is empty.

I have a feeling I didn’t do it the correct way.

This is what I did.

a) I installed Python on my machine which is operating on windows 7.
b) Run the script via command line.

@Fentex please put code tags around like osx rocks


regex_cache = re.compile(r']*href="([^"]+)[^>]+>Cached]*href="([^"]+)[^>]+id=pnnext')

It saves the file under a directory named ‘files’ in the current working directory.

Hi Guy,

where are the files saved, after running the Script.

There is s slight chance, as google changed things it was written. You may need to update it.

Hi, we’ve just lost the content off our site, too. Is there any luck with the new automated script?

No, you’ll have to rewrite it, it’s in Python.
