how to download all Q&As of a user on curiouscat.me

Post by pepperminty »

Can wget, httrack or some other program download all of a user's questions and answers on https://curiouscat.me?

How can I use httrack to download all the question and answers of a user called
"foo" on https://curiouscat.me, where their site will be https://curiouscat.me/foo?
The particular username I have in mind has more than 500 questions. When using
a web browser, the only way to get to the earlier questions is to PageDown or
(hit "End" key). But this gets tedious.

For a particular example, see https://curiouscat.me/curiouscat
Can httrack or wget or something else come to the rescue?

Basically what I want is a webpage that contains all of a user's Q&A, which you can manually get if you keep scrolling down (or keep pressing PageDown or End).

I've literally only got a few minutes, but this might be what you need - else someone might point you to another scaper/spider.

Thanks, Chris, but that program is just for 2 Bulletin Board platforms.
