One of my problems is treating feature requests like they are support requests. Oops, I’ve done it again. Sorry if this is no help. So you want something like this: [https://meta.discourse.org/posts/1849580/raw](https://meta.discourse.org/posts/1849580/raw) or this: [https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447) or this [https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/1](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/1) Oh. You want the raw text from **all** posts in the topic. > [@sren-1](#): > > For now, my workflow is: _Edit the post_ → `STRG-A`, `STRG-C` → _create / open a text file_ → `STRG-V`, `STRG-S` → _Discard Editing_… next post. This isn’t a solution, but an improved version of that is. But that doesn’t save very many clicks. - [https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/1](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/1) - [https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/2](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/2) - [https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/3](https://meta.discourse.org/raw/381447/3) That’s pretty easy to automate with some command line tools. A clever one would get the json of the topic to see how many posts there were and then get them all, perhaps pausing to deal with rate limiting. A theme component could give you links to the raw text for each post. A plugin could do what you want. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/bulk-export-of-raw-post-sources-with-markup/381447)._
