Single Post Backup?

Colin:
Do you mean taking a back up of an entire thread?

Yes. That is exactly what I mean

Kindred:
I, honestly, can not see this as being at all useful for the wide audience. It seems to be a very specific request that I have never seen anyone ask for before... Nor would most admins have an use for it. We either back up the entire forum or not... A single post seems rather pointless.

Colin:
I don't see this being helpful either. If you need to though you can simply pull the data from the database manually.

Fearless Freap:
Actually I would see it a beneficial...

Here's why...

On my forum, which is more photo based versus text based, I can have a large number of attachments and replies.  The system takes the attachment, changes the file name and stores it with no file type (Example .jpg .tff .png)

There is no way to line up the attachments to the server file that is simple and easy.  So I have to manually download each file which takes a long time.  You can back up the attachment directory but how easy is it to locate the original file, find the server equivalent and convert it back for 60+ attachments per each thread?

To have a button or an option that says, download all attachments of a thread can't be that hard to create.
