Stupid blog tricks

I've suddenly realize I have the longest blog known to man and am trying to tame the damn thing by keeping my past blog entries in an archive. Problem is, Blogger doesn't seem to archive retroactively. And I keep getting errors when I try to publish to a just made archive directory.

So.... how do you archive your blogs and keep the links to them on the main blog?

What are your error messages? I'm certain there's how-tos about archiving on the Blogger site, also.

IIRC, what you do in Blogger is follow the instructions for setting up an archive folder and file, then set your archiving frequency to weeks or months or whatever. Then you republish your whole blog. This should create archives of all the posts you have made so far.

Check your error messages, because it could be something really simple like a badly named file. Like an '-' instead of an '_'. And if you can't fix it, you can always email Blogger, because they do reply with support.

Thanks oullabelle. Didn't even know they responded to emails. I'll give that a shot.

Grrr. Blogger was no help. So do they not retroactively parcel out your past posts depending on your daily/weekly/monthly preferences? 'Cause I'm having a helluva time getting old posts linked to using Blogger.
