Is there an option to save or print off a thread?
Recently there was a particularly interesting thread on Tolumias. I would love to have been able to save, flag, or print it. Is there a way to do that? When I click on thread options, no options appear. Thoughts?

You can print the web page from your browser menu (or right click).
Another option is to print screen and save as an image.
Another one...select and copy the text to a word document (for ex). There, you can change or add/delete what you want.

I am seldom at the computer anymore. Those sound like they would work but, not easily from.my phone. I'll give it a go before that thread gets buried. Guess I was to flag it or something.

Most phone browsers allow you to save a Web page. Commands differ. It is much easier from a desktop.
I keep text files of information specific to different groups of plants that I find on the Web. I copy the URL and text to the clipboard and paste into a plain text file I keep sorted alphabetically by genus. I do this because Web pages with great information have a tendency to disappear.

I actually print out care instructions and file them. I like print ( I'm old). However, I could certainly cut and paste to a document and print it.
Recently went to a conference, spent a lot of effort taking notes and saving them to one drive. The keynotes speakers of course we're in a DVD for an excruciating amount of money. So, I know it can be done just the learning curve.

Another option is to simply bookmark it

At conferences you can take photos of the presentation slides with your mobile phone.

Not all speakers had slides and yes, I thought of that. I was able to get what I needed. I have an opinion about the price of those things...

I'll use one of those options, thank you all. I guess I was hoping there was a feature built into the OB itself.

Yeah, I would say bookmarking the page would be the best method for having it easily accessible by mobile device. And if you have Google Chrome, I know that bookmarks saved on one device will be accessible to any device with Chrome and the same Google account signed into it. Lol, I'm a Google fanboy.

Thanks, Cody. I think Google owns us.
