The reasonThis topic: Thread printing got me thinking: "Show all" is so convenient to CTRL-F something. ScraperI made a script that scrapes all posts from a thread, and uploads it as one page to loyce.club/showall/How to use it1. Get the topic ID from the URL. I'll use 5102296 as an example. 2. Post the following link, but replace the topic ID by the one you want: https://loyce.club/showall/5102296.html on any public board, so my scraper can find it. This has to be a new post, edits are ignored. 3. Wait a bit (about 10 seconds + 7 seconds per page) 4. Click the link you created 5. Feel free to delete your post again The link created at #2 is not an archive: any new request will overwrite it. If you want, you can archive it. BugsProbably, it was a quick job Please post them here. LimitationsI scrape a maximum of 500 pages per topic (sorry Wall Observer). I can increase this if needed, but this is probably enough to kill your browser already. During scraping, all new requests are ignored. I didn't account for multitasking. If someone else occupies my scraper, you'll have to post your request again a bit later. There's an additional 2 minute delay between requests. Don't quote this post!

"Show all" is so convenient to CTRL-F something. It is nice to be able to do that, though note that if you use the search box in the upper right while in a topic, it searches only that topic.

That's good to know, I was not aware of that. The "show all" feature is cool, but it often triggers the cloudflare page.

This is a great alternative, thank you! This is good for what you're looking for, search through thread for some words, for example. I don't know if it would be possible, but it would be better if the page would end up into something like this, the returned output would just be the user and the content of the post, it would not just be a printer-friendly output but also spreadsheet-friendly one. Apologies for being demanding

Shame on me it would be better if the page would end up into something like thisAgreed! If this is going to be used, I'll change it. However, nobody has tested it yet. Come on, don't be shy

But still below feature need lot of improvement. I am not able to find things when I try to search in my own/someone post history. Nor did it look search button is effective when you search on the pages like this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1446224;sa=showPosts

Maybe I'm doing something wrong? You'll have to post the link you're trying to see on the forum first. Not the link to the topic, but the link to loyce.club. That's the wrong link, if you post http://loyce.club/showall/994018.html it works. Update: it's still scraping. It's done, but it totally fails on Russian I don't have time at the moment, so I'll look into it later. Sorry for that. Fixed.

Very interesting idea. We will wait when you can add support for Russian. If I archive some user's posts in this form, will they be evidence on the forum?

Yes cloudflare is an issue. To the extent of my knowledge, all leading cdn's would be triggered on the same issue. I ran into this problem when trying to implement a similar "show all" feature on a flarum based forum. Another dev did confirm that Akami, Fastly, Amazon CF all were triggering the warning page. It wasn't a real hindrance to workflow just a bit annoying. The search function here is famously broken for quite some time. I try to make do with whatever I want to search by using google search by using "bitcointalk.org" in quotes. It usually works. When I have to search my inbox I try to use common vowel letters. That usually pulls up the required content almost 9 out of 10 times.

Is it possible to make the script work on the page "Show the last posts of this person"?
BTW, the authors of the big topics might be posting these links in the first posts of their topics. Then users will not need to post such links.

BTW, the authors of the big topics might be posting these links in the first posts of their topics. Then users will not need to post such links. If someone quotes the link, it triggers an update. I didn't exclude quotes yet (because it's more work).

This is really great of course. I would really love one that showed all someone's posts, but I expect that's very hard, even for a masterscraper.

Having to be able to see someones posts, for example, when you are verifying a persons staked address in Tomatocage’s thread or showing all the OP’s replies or something. It would make it a lot easier but as the limitation states on the page count, we’ll see This is how I knew that the search bar searches only in that thread. I searched my previous post about my staked address.
