It would be beneficial for us to have a basic tutorial on how to use the data from SVF ourselves. Not a thousand step tutorial. Not a build yourself a database and query it vague tutorial. Give us the basic steps necessary to get the job done. Someone has to have an easier way for a normal non-it guy than what I'm doing.
I haven't seen a post covering this yet. Sorry if I missed it, but all the conversations have fallen into one of the two examples I listed above.
Last 2 items left are comments & submissions. The 14 gb thumbnails file does not exist, which I probably would not have wasted my time on downloading anyways, unless it was a torrent.
From the code that I have looked at, it is a bit of a mess, so I'm not even sure I will spend any time on that(understand, I am not knocking searchvoat, just stating the obvious, this has been developed over years as a fun project, which looking at the code, is probably not that fun anymore).
I can most likely do something with the sql, and perhaps even give that some relational relational integrity in order to make it a bit more functional, though we shall see, as I really have not delved into the submissions and comments yet.
As far as OP's wish, there is no way that will happen.
I'll see if the DB can be cleaned up a bit in a more relational manner, but at this point is is a bit of a mess.

There is no easy way. It's a raw dump of the website. It includes the PHP code and the SQL database files.
The simplest way to query the data is to install MariaDB as back-end and HeidiSQL as front-end if on Windows. Then load submissions.sql and comments.sql into the DB and you can run queries.
If you have normal IQ and able to use search engines to figure out basic computer problems, you should be able to figure it out. It's not entry-level difficulty, but not impossibly complicated either.
But to get a full working website (or even simple point-and-click) requires IT knowledge (PHP, SQL, Apache, and Unix/Linux command-line).

The link in the OP over there just used the wrong extension.
