There are several threads that are very long and very very good. I would like to save them or print them out, but it is difficult to do with the page format. I know some old Bikeforums pages are still online in an archive view. Is there anyway to see newer threads in the same (more printer friendly) view?

Thanks in advance.

Boy, Ceil, you sure are a newbie!!

You can do that by Clicking on "Thread Tools" and selecting "show printable version" It puts everything one one quick page.

Do a search next time before taking up the bikeforums valuable time!

Hey... at least it's sincere.

I'm (at least partially) vindicated. The "show printable version" doesn't show more than 30 posts. Is there anyway to see the *whole* thread? Obviously that's an expensive operation if someone mistakenly requested a view of the "How was your commute today" thread.

If it can't be done with button clicks, could such a thing be requested from the moderators at need?

Believe me, like all forms of abuse, my self-abuse is much worse in private.

Hmmm... I hadn't realised there was a limit. I'm going to move this thread to Forum Suggestions & User Assistance where it should garner better responses.

Change the setting in you profile to show more than 30 posts in a thread. I believe that is where you will find the limiter.

30 is the the highest setting I have.

Odd...that sucks. I know on other forums you can select up to 100. You are going to have to print each page individually it seems
