I am a newbie to this software, I signed up for the free trial today.

One thing I would like to do, is convert some of my wordpress websites into static ones. So basically I have a folder with all the files and images needed, that I can directly upload to a server.

Is there a tutorial, or some documentation explaining how to do this?

Hi @patxer. This isn’t something that PG does but there are applications that can make a local copy of the site (search google for website ripping software) for you or you could try this Wordpress plugin and see if it fits your needs [Wordpress to HTML](https://wordpress.org/plugins/static-html-output-plugin/). I’d be interested in hearing how you get on if you do use the plugin as I’ve never tried it myself! Hope this is helpful. Or maybe this [http://staticsnapshot.com](http://staticsnapshot.com)

I would also post your website here and we can offer feedback on the work involved in rebuilding the website via Pinegrow. Depending on your current level of experience/knowledge, you may find yourself learning more by creating the website from scratch with Pinegrow.
