Can a thread be exported, mods?

General Discussion
#1

I am directing this question to the moderators, or to anyone else here that knows better than I how this program works.

I am curious if it is possible to export an entire thread into my own computer. I have two conversations going here, my personal Journal of the Wildman, and a music thread in the coping category.

If God forbid, this forum was to shut down overnight due to a lack of participation, I would dearly love to have my two conversations saved in my own computer for my own memories. I consider the journal thread in particular to be just that, a journal of my trials and tribulations during this period in my life with PFS.

So here is the question I put to you: is there a way to save an entire conversation into my computer?

Thank you for any response. Jim

Paste these into a new tab, and then save as PDF when prompted.

Thank you for your assistance @wonk on these. Took me a while to figure it out but I’ve got it now. In fact I had Each one twice by the time I got done!

Does this indicate that you could export and save any thread if you just put print after the thread number?

Thanks again, jim

I tried it on a different thread, and yes that works. So for anyone reading this who has a thread you are personally involved in and you wish to save it, the above is how to do it.

The only drawback that I can see is that this will not save any posts that occur after the point you save the thread.
Thank you again @wonk

If I may inquire, are you a post syndrome sufferer, a relative of one, a science expert, a medical expert, a journalist? You seem to be the only staff member the community knows so little about without much posted about yourself. You are the only mod who hasn’t done the survey.
