Is there a place where the sum of the uploaded attached files can be found , such as the pdf archives Rhodium had at the Hive? there mujst be a large collection are this open to be viewed or are we limited to just requesting the one's we seek?

Just a question, as it seems there is probably quite a large collection stored somewhere....................solo

I think the best thing would be if you download one of the SMDB backups. It contains a folder called 'MEDIA' which contains all attachments.

On that note, maybe another backup is due, since the last one's been done quite a while ago.

The administration control panel allows one to search for all attachments but it's a bit of a pain getting it into a form that others can use. I hope this will do: https://www.sciencemadness.org/scipics/attachments2.html.

I agree that another backup is probably due; I haven't run one since we moved to the new XMB version since I'm afraid I will have to slightly modify and verify the backup program. I suppose I'll do that today.

Polv, every link on that page you created is 404ed.

Ah, I see the problem. It uses relative links. It has now been moved into the /talk/ hierarchy and should work better:

How does one locate the thread and post
