I'd like to be able to make any single post printer friendly.

Currently both vbhome lite and the normal vbulletin support this using either printarticle.php or printthread.php, but both work off a thread ID which means it just pulls the top post.

Is there an alteration I can make that would allow me to use a link like this:

printarticle.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$post[postid]

To pull ONLY the one post I want into a printer friendly format?

I'm fairly new to php in general but I think it requires a change to either printarticle.php or printthread.php itself, allowing it to use the postid info once it recieves it.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Any advice on setting up a page with any one post in a printer friendly format, using the postid info?

You want have probably an icon for each post? To have it printable?

Yea, I really like the way it is set up in VbHome(Lite) except that only pulls using the threadid.

Basically an icon on each post saying "Printer friendly", which brings only that post into a new page which is completely white with a basic line or two showing the forum name and post location, post title and message.
