4chan archives: which archive has which board
4chan deletes threads within hours to days, so old threads only survive on third-party archives - and each archive covers different boards. This page maps every worksafe board to the archives that hold it, and checks each archive's uptime every 30 minutes.

FAQ
What is the best 4chan archive?
It depends on the board, because each archive only covers certain boards. 4plebs (archive.4plebs.org) archives /adv/, /o/, /sp/, /tg/, /trv/, /tv/, /x/. warosu (warosu.org) archives /3/, /biz/, /cgl/, /ck/, /diy/, /fa/, /jp/, /lit/, /sci/, /vr/, /vt/. Desuarchive (desuarchive.org) covers 22 boards, including /a/, /an/, /c/, /cgl/, /co/, /fit/, /g/, /his/, /int/, /k/, /m/, /mlp/ and more. fireden.net (boards.fireden.net) archives /cm/, /co/, /sci/, /vip/. Use the board table on this page to find the right one.
Do 4chan archives keep images?
Some do. Many archives store full images only for some boards and thumbnails for the rest. The table on this page shows which boards have full images on each archive.
Does 4chan have its own archive?
Yes, but it is short-term: many boards have an /archive page listing recently expired threads. For anything older you need a third-party archive.
Why is a 4chan archive not loading?
Archives are volunteer-run and often sit behind bot protection or go offline. Our status page checks each one every 30 minutes, and archives that stay down for a week are removed from our search links automatically.
