I used HTTrack to rip off a landing page i found. I have a domain and i want to create a subdomain and upload with landing page there. I would also like to edit the content locker so I can put mine there instead. Could you guys give me a helping hand ?
 
What exactly u need help with ? show me maybe i can help
 
Where in the file downloaded with HTTrack do i find the link to the content locker ?
 
What content locker are you talking about? To change content read below.

Basically you've got an html/css/js files. If you want to edit the text open the HTML files with any text editor (preferably some editor that can color the text to make it easier to read such as notepad++, visualstudio code, sublime text etc).
Go to the directory where you downloaded the website, there you should have a file such as index.html open it up in your browser see what text you want to replace copy it, go to the text editor CTRL+F and find that text -> now replace it with the new text you want to put on the website and reload the page in your browser.

Depends on your hosting provider but since you've downloaded pure static files and do not need the backend you could host it as a static website on netlify for free while connecting your domain / subdomain.

Usually if you are using some hosting and want to put the website there you'd have to do it either through cpanel by uploading the last version or via ftp.

You create a subdomain from the domain register where you have the domain registered then most likely will need to add CNAME record to point to your server to serve the website under that subdomain.
 
Come to PM i help you
 
The answer TH3T41K gave is a good step by step guide if you're looking to do it by yourself.

Just chiming in to say he's right.
 
There are many great scrapers on github for web cloning
 
I've been thinking that it would be nice to have a devtools extension, that would let you copy html nodes WITH the relevant css.

Haven't given any thought to how to code that.

But if anyone makes it or knows of something similar that already exists, I'd like to know about it.
