TCH-Thomas Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 I would like to be able to print only certain parts of my blog. Lets say I made a post and a few people commented it and I would like to print out my post and the comments but not the new comment text box or the sidebar etc. Is there a way to do that?

Madmanmcp Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 Thomas, see if this will work. Highlight the text you want to print, right-click on it and select print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Thomas Posted July 17, 2005 Author Share Posted July 17, 2005 Sorry. The sidebar etc are being printed too now when I try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmanmcp Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 In the print dialog box "page range" area should be a "selection" checkbox, select this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Thomas Posted July 17, 2005 Author Share Posted July 17, 2005 That partially worked. What happened now was that the comments got printed but not my post even if it was highlighted too. What I would really love to find though is something like this (Click on demo for WordPress 1.5 Print). The only problem with this addon is that it only prints the post and not the comments.

Thumper Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 If it's for your site you can create a print stylesheet. There is a good article here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TweezerMan Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 The WordPress 1.5 Print addon appears to be a Wordpress template, with instructions for tweaking Wordpress and adding a mod_rewrite rule to the .htacess file to make the URLs work. If you want the page to display comments so they are printed with the post, it looks to me like all you'd need to do is edit the wp-print.php file and add the necessary code to display the comments on the page.
