YT2095 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I`m not sure if there`s a call for this from other users here, but would it be possible to have all the New Posts for the last 24 hours put into an area that can be DL`d easily and put onto floppy for reading on a laptop when there`s no inet access. the thought occured to me the other day whilst relaxing in my other Lab after I`de finished reading my book, "I wonder what`s going on in SFN". I know there`s an area that shows Printable version, could there be a DLable version made, but just for the Newposts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 1) Subscribe to the RSS feed, 2) 'Open all in tabs' before you go offline, 3) Suspend or hibernate, 4) Profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Thanks but I don`t understand it? I looked in subscribed threads in usercp and couldn`t find anything that said RSS. I`m probably doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m probably doing something wrong? If you're using Firefox you should see a small orange icon at the bottom right of the window. Click that.

YT2095 Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 nada, EI 6, and no Sunny-D icon either and Newtonian, the chatroom is working, I`m in there now (although the chanserv bot is on vacation it would seem) there`s nothing stopping you joining.

Sayonara Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 IE doesn't support RSS feeds, because it's the irritable old artificial-hipped woman of the browser market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayonara Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Going back to your original idea, it would have to be a single zipped-up package of all the new threads, plus threads that have been updated in the past 24 hours. It would get deleted and recreated once a day. I wonder if there's a mod for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 yeah, I was thinking of something like setting it to 00:00GMT, erase old and begin New log as the "Trigger". like the Archive section we have, but only holding the last 24 hours. it`s not essential if it can`t be done, it would just be nice when I run out of reading material, and start missing you guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 you could always save each thread to work offline, but that'd get very boring! a potential problem would be that images and very long threads (joke thread) would fill up a floppy disk quite quickly.

Sayonara Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Yes. VBulletin is hardly code-conservative what with all the tables and client-side scripts, and it's packed with images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevermore Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 I'd be happy to host the daily dl's. I have plenty of extra time and prossesing power. Just tell me where to upload to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 It's more to do with how useful it will be to members, rather than how much space a daily digest takes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
