Can this be used to see if a thread was moved to a different board?

Thank you! Precisely what I was looking for.

Now I will go after the mystery of why the topic was deleted. I just hope this is not a standard practice around.

I don't know the topic ID.

Is there a way to check it?
You can find your old posts using your userID here:
Viewing unedited/deleted posts

How to use it
  • Find the msgID, userID or topicID you need. Let's use msgID 51902990.
  • Remove the last 4 digits from the msgID to get the directory name (if there are less than 4 digits, use 0): 5190.
  • Put everything together behind the (above) URL and add ".html": http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5190/51902990.html.

So in your case, that brings you to unedited (or deleted) posts made by kire - cryptzino. This post was deleted, and I guess this is what you're looking for: https://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5263237.html

Great tool, and I'm trying to utilize it.

It seems my last topic is deleted. But as I don't have PM or other messages, I don't know the topic ID.

Is there a way to check it?

Thank you

TheBeardedBaby made this suggestion:
Can you add a link to the deleted posts from each user in the list. I'm talking about this >
Code:
https://loyce.club/archive/members/267/2670747.html
I've added it, click "more" to see all unedited/deleted posts:
Image loading...

Disclaimer:
I don't check if I actually have archived older posts for that user. Users who haven't posted in the last year will lead to a 404 for now. When I'm done scraping older posts, I may add all of them.

I can say this is an amazing tool. I finally got the time to go trough the long threads and yes, it's working perfectly well.
My bookmark list of LoyceVs threads is growing, soon start to be difficult to get oriented in it, I have to start dividing them in sections based on categories.
This is only a good news.

Perfect tool to spot a bumping services, I'll give it more tests after we are back from vacation, traveling this weekend Smiley

Only one of three requests seems to have worked:
That is correct, I ignore all new requests during scraping.
Update: I now allow up to 5 requests (from one user or from different users) at once. So what you and TheBeardedBaby did earlier shouldn't be a problem from now on.

I also noticed I forgot to activate the limitation on number of pages. I'll increase it to 250 pages, just know that it will take a very long time if a topic is that long.

Perhaps yours is in a queue behind my three (two of which might be in a holding pattern at the moment?)
Correct. TheBeardedBaby posted this while you occupied my scraper.
IF it works, you should see something on the URL you posted within a few seconds. That placeholder stays until it's done.
I restarted TheBeardedBaby's request.

Doesn't quoting the link re-trigger the scrapper?
Correct.



I'll make some changes: when I'm done, I'll allow more than one request at once. But each additional request will slow down the other requests, I don't want to cause too much load on the forum.
Updates done Smiley Feel free to test it.
See status.txt for currently running tasks.



Mine is quite a huge thread -> Stake your Bitcoin address here.
It becomes interesting from the moment I started archiving all posts. It also shows the startup problems I've had with failed archives due to down time.
I currently can't catch older deleted posts (that may have been deleted after I scraped them). I'll add this to my Todo.

Doesn't quoting the link re-trigger the scrapper? You might have killed it twice or thrice for good measure. Cheesy

Just kidding. LoyceV probably had considered the possibility. Wink

I hope I haven't killed the server Cheesy (if so, send me the bill in PM...)
It will take quite some time to analyze it myself but it could be worth it.

Only one of three requests seems to have worked:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/known-alts-of-any-one-a-user-generated-list-mk-iii-2021-q2-2544574

Mk III has 117 pages (and counting) - far more than the Mk II & Mk I combined.  (and all three threads have multiple posts that get reviewed and edited at later dates)

Do more pages get scraped at a later date if a new request is made?

Unfortunately, since I scraped this thread only this year, I can't highlight older deleted posts.

What better place to contribute to the testing other than this thread?

I'll try one of my own posts:
https://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_797299.html

Let's see.

Any way to get a "permanent archive" link prior to its current date or up to a specific date only?
I'm not sure what you're looking for. If I have an older version available, the link shows up.
If there is no older version, I'll mention that from now on. Example: http://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5256854.html

No I didn't, I was just trying it without actually posting, somehow I completely missed that underlined "post it" part, and I posted it when I thought it's not working.
I'm not so advanced that I can do cool server-side stuff. I need a post to trigger a request.



The "no unedited backup" shows up for posts that are less than a few minutes old. Even though I archived the post already, my topic list gets updated only once every 5 minutes. This is a shortcoming I can live with Smiley

Did you post the link in a new post?
If you don't post it, my scraper won't create it. I've underlined the "post it" in my OP.

I think all you had to do was posting the link. When you posted about it, it worked Tongue
Yep, that was the issue. My bad, all good now!

Hm, I don't know what I am doing wrong, but this thing doesn't work for me, all I get is 404 error message.
Did you post the link in a new post?
In your post history, I can't find the link anywhere else than in your current post. My scraper didn't miss any recent posts, so I can only conclude you didn't post it.
If you don't post it, my scraper won't create it. I've underlined the "post it" in my OP.

Tried waiting for a few minutes
If all goes well, after a few seconds there should be a page telling you it's now scraping your topic. Depending on the number of pages that can take a while, but it auto-refreshes.

So I guess I had to wait for it to get processed/updated

Edited!
Can your scraper detect edits within the 10-minute mark?

Bump: I need testers Smiley
Another test for "this topic" Smiley
- Link: http://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5243791.html
Update: It's working.

Wish I had some sMerits for you.

I'm not sure if  I am doing this correctly. will delete the post later if I made a mistake but if not, I'll update if it's working.

testing: http://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5257024.html

the link works! thanks! great job as always!

edit: it works now Smiley
So I guess I had to wait for it to get processed/updated, as you said. I like this new feature a lot, it makes it so much easier to find deleted/edited posts.
