Here is the vb 3.5.x version of my Download Forum Thread To Your Computer hack. This hacks allows you to download a forum thread into your computer (desktop etc.) as a text file with one click.

The hack adds a "DOWNLOAD THREAD" link inside Thread Tools pop-up and when clicked entire thread is downloaded to your computer. (See Screenshot)

It's useful when:
a) You want to archive and save the thread,
b) Want to read it offline,
c) It's a long thread and you want to browse it faster as a text file, use better searching features of your text editor.

The hack works with 3.5.x, 3.6.x, 3.7.x, 3.8.x (for vb 4.x, 3.0.x and 2.x versions see my profile.)

It is very easy to install. You can install it to your board without modifying any vb files.

If you install it, please click INSTALL, thank you.

Hacks of Hack:
* French Translation
* Version that works with Russian Alphabet
* Download it as RTF instead of TXT.


Enjoy the hack,
Logician

This mod has stopped working for long threads. I have a few threads that are around 75+ pages and it's only downloading around 25 pages.

Any ideas on how to get this working for longer threads please ?

I checked source code again and I can't see a reason why this would happen. And I don't have any thread that is as long that I can test. If you give me ftp/admin cp access to your board and url of such a thread there, I can try to debug. Through not sure if I can do anything because as far as I can see source code is fine so I'd suspect server etc. somehow. But I can check if you want to give it a shot.

This worked like a champ, and you are a genius Logician.
You also write very clear release notes and instructions.

Thank you!

Works great on vB 3.8.3.
If you want to avoid to edit manually the showthread template, here's a new product file.

Thanks.

Does this work on the latest 3.8.X? I saw this for vBulletin 4 and here, but no 3.8.
