In my Discourse forum I have some very long topics and I can’t find a way to either print them or export them to other formats (like MS-Word for example). These are the ways I have tried but without success: Print from the browser: only a certain number of the first posts are printed, after which only blank pages follow. Save as HTML from browser: same as above. Select the whole topic to copy the contents to the Windows clipboard: you cannot select the whole topic, after a certain number of posts nothing is copied anymore. So, the only possibility I have found is to select single parts of the topic and then paste them one by one in Word or similar, but obviously this is a very time consuming job. I will be grateful if someone could suggest me a way to solve the problem. Thank you . Gianni Rossi

[imagem] Raw of a topic gives only the first ~100 posts Support Append ?page=2 to the URL and so on.

Depending on how many replies there are, adding /print to the end of the main topic URL (eg. https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-print-or-export-very-long-topics/223138/print) could be useful to you. I think it still has a cut-off point, but in a quick test it gave me far more replies than the standard browser alternative.

Yup, /print is the way to go. If you press Ctrl + p on the keyboard that should take you straight there. If you’d like to be able to access this from the UI, you can install this theme component: https://github.com/discourse/Discourse-topic-print-component (ignore the ‘archived’ banner on GitHub - that’s a mistake. I’ll get it unarchived :eyes:)

Other than pressing Ctrl + p any time you want to either print or export to PDF/HTML, if you want to export to markdown you can visit the raw route like https://meta.discourse.org/raw/223138

Thanks Jammy and David, /print or Ctrl + p solved the problem. [imagem] Falco: if you want to export to markdown you can visit the raw route like https://meta.discourse.org/raw/223138 Sorry but I don’t understand how to use that URL for my own topic. Could you please clarify. Thanks.

forum.example.com/raw/topicID should give you a markdown file of the topic.

[imagem] sethm: forum.example.com/raw/topicID should give you a markdown file of the topic. It works, thanks, but the topic is truncated at post 100 out of 177. is there a way to get the text of the whole topic?
