To capture sites that require a user to be logged in, you must specify a path to a chrome profile (which loads the cookies needed for the user to be logged in). If you don't have an existing chrome profile, create one with `chromium-browser --disable-gpu --user-data-dir=/tmp/chrome-profile`, and log into the sites you need. Then set `CHROME_USER_DATA_DIR=/tmp/chrome-profile` to make Bookmark Archiver use that profile.
**Index Options:**

- html index row template: `INDEX_ROW_TEMPLATE` value: [`templates/index_row.html`]/`...`

- html template staticfiles: `TEMPLATE_STATICFILES` value: [`templates/static`]/`...`
- html template footer text: `FOOTER_INFO` value: [`Content is hosted for personal archiving purposes only. Contact server owner for any takedown requests.`]/`...`
(See defaults & more at the top of `config.py`)
To tweak the outputted html index file's look and feel, just copy the files in `templates/` somewhere else and edit away. Use the two index config variables above to point the script to your new custom template files.

The archive produced by `./archive` is suitable for serving on any provider that can host static html (e.g. github pages!).
You can also serve it from a home server or VPS by uploading the outputted `html` folder to your web directory, e.g. `/var/www/bookmark-archiver` and configuring your webserver.

Here's a sample nginx configuration that works to serve archive folders:
