Solved Search through all embedded images

Post by Dawidwg April 21st 2023, 7:48 pm

Hello,

I have very specific question. Due to Imgur.com deleting all anonymously uploaded images, I would like to download/transfer all embedded images from posts on my forum. It's too time-consuming to walk through thousands of posts manually. Is there any way to at least search for every post that contains [img] tag and imgur.com link inside? Default search tool works very poorly, it doesn't return any post with imgur images. Is there a way to have "wildcards" in search box?

It's very Important to me to not to loose any of my forum content.

If I understand correctly, it is not possible to search by images on our forums.  It is by keywords and/or tags.

Hi sadly there is no easy way to look in a forum for a
Code:
IMG
or image link as the codes are hidden when it shows as a image.

So sadly I can't see how this would be easy to do and our search system is not made to look for things like this sorry.

@Dawidwg it is always advised to save all your images using our own hosts so if any images are lost we can see if we can fix it our end.
if you host outside our system then we can't help you as easy.

Is this now solved so i can close the topic ?

If yes then please press the mark solved button found at the top of your topic or just post solved so we can close the topic.

Regards.

Ape.

Ofc, you are not responsible for outside hosting.
My question was more about search function. If it is not possible to search for [img] tag inside posts using regex/wildcards, then probably there is no easy solution.
