Hi Marcel
Very helpful reply. Much appreciated.
I am using LibreOffice and an Export option in Guestbook downloaded the full file with me choosing CSV. It needed some cleaning up from spam entries and symbols such as & had some additional material that had to be cleaned up. Ohterwise great!
Thanks for your comment about emails etc. We work here under UK Data Protection guidelines and our intention is to ask for a First name only and to only show this alongside the date and moderated post on the live site . Similarly, if a copy of the posts is requested for research or other serious work, this will only cover date and post content.
Incidentally, I submitted a sample of posts to an AI program with a request to list all the birds seen, and how frequently, to be compiled in a table and got it all very rapidly.
Still need to check for accuracy, but impressed.
Again, our thanks
Best wishess
Michael
