I have sometimes attached a PDF document to a post in these forums.
As my computer got broken, I am trying to recover what I can.
Is there a way to find what attachments I have added to posts without going through each thread please?
I don’t think there’s anything built into the basic forum software, so I would probably need to find and install a suitable extension. I’ll look into it.
I’ve just performed an Advanced search for posts by user William containing the search term attach* (i.e. beginning with ‘attach’). The search returned only 28 results, so it shouldn’t be too onerous to check which ones actually have files attached.
By the way, you really should keep proper backups of your important files on removable media or cloud storage (or both). For a few tens of pounds you can buy an external SSD that plugs into a USB port and gives you many tens of gigabytes of storage capacity.
