Rare Turtles06 Posted October 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2018 That's an excellent question. It used to be that if you clicked on the number of the post you wanted, it would open that one post in its own window and you could print just that single post. After reading your question, I tried right and left clicking on post numbers, but that won't do it now. I've also right and left clicked on the "share this post" icon and tried the different options, but none gives you a link that will isolate just that one post, even though the "share this post" purports to give you a link to that post. But what it gives you is a link to the whole thread. If someone has figured out how to isolate one post in a thread now, please let us know. If it can't be done, I hope this bug will be fixed. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 28, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 28, 2018 This is not the most convenient method, but you can highlight the entire post and copy it. Then paste it into a Word (Pages or other word processing document), and print it from there. This will also work on mobile devices if you have a print to pdf function, or it you have an air print capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flossie009 Posted October 28, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Printing a "screenshot" works well on a Mac or iPad 🙂 ............... but, yet again, a great pity that useful functionality from the previous forum is not available on this new "improved" site 😠 .............. so many workarounds required and then still not able to get all the functionality back 🙁 The only plus to the new site is the ability to post photos ........... but that was easy enough on the old forum using TapaTalk Edited October 28, 2018 by flossie009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just had to be careful to not delete the coding marks (as many people seemed to do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norine This is convoluted but works Hit the quote button, then the preview icon then you can print and it will just print that page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underwatr Posted October 29, 2018 #12 Share Posted October 29, 2018 "Set as desktop background" suggests ties to the device as well. I don't have an + in the upper left (and don't see one in your screenshot) (Chrome on an Android tablet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
