Time to rebuild indexes and rebuild pre-search results.
Thank you for giving me peace of mind when it comes to backing up my stories.
Added to my torrent box :)
Officially my favorite quarterly post! Thank you as always for the ongoing effort.
Thanks again!

is this every story that was ever on the site or every one /currently/ on the site? just wanting to know if I need to download multiple versions if I want a backup of everything ever.

I think yes. Unless instead of deleting entire story chapters were deleted instead.
It's of our common knowledge that Pinkie Pie knows EVERYTHING! Some theorise that she was the librarian before Twilight moved inside the Golden Oak's. If you need a book, she knows exactly where it is.
So together with Pinkie, we started Project Pink One for searching fanfics you want to read on FimFiction. Got a book you want to find? Open https://pinkone.ltgc.cc in your browser and start searching!
Since Pinkie assures that the search is quite andvanced for some purple unicorns, she recomends to further read Pink One: A Reference Guide.

It's complicated. If a story was totally de-listed/deleted it is likely to be in the archive. If the chapters were "updated" to blanks or some similar type of destruction, you might need to check an older version of the archive. You can often spot check this by using the WaybackMachine to find a date that has the story and get the proper version needed. Sadly, sometimes a story might be made and deleted between archive creations, if this happens it won't be in the archive either.
Best of luck on your story hunt!

Thank you _so_ very much for sharing this. It's always nice to come across a solution for those oh-geeze-something-might've-disappeared-forever heart-attacks. Which, granted, is something Fimfarchive would be in general, but PinkOne makes the option extremely handy.
I admit to not reading the guide, but found that putting underscores between the words of a title seems to work like a charm for locating individual entire stories, so I'm very grateful.

PinkOne is full-text search. Basically fimfiction-only google.
