Introduction

This script can download the contents of many posts on the forum including locally hosted attachments and files on some external hosts such as jpg.church, pixl, cyberdrop, bunkr, pixeldrain and others.

The script adds a download button alongside every post and a download all button at the top of every page which will download every post on the page.

Weird Zip Names


If zips download with a weird filename i.e. f81dfbdc-eb8b-4b37-8bb5-5100d498e2f6.zip then you should disable any download managers such as downthemall, free download manager etc., refresh the page and try again

How can I download them just as pic not the zip?
And thank you so much!
Have settled.
If anyone wants to know, just search the figure "createZip" and change the "truth" to "false".

Is there a way to change the default download directory?
I had a look through the code and I can't see anywhere it specifies where, so I'm assuming it just uses Chrome's default download directory?

The Tampermonkey update is to blame. I tried fiddling with the settings but I couldn't get it to work. Install the older version and it will work again.

Ok, so TamperMonkey updated is the issue, but for those of us that run other scripts, rolling back to a previous version is only a short term solution. Also, I did a preliminary search, and I couldn't easily find the download for the previous Firefox version anyways. Is there a plan to update the script? This is a great quality of life tool.

There is no previous script, its previous version of tampermonkey you need.

If someone can figure out how to fix the problem the update is causing it would be most appreciated
