[ACCEPTED] - Suggestions for the new bookmark feature

[ducktape_diva]

Personally, I think it would be nice to have labelled folders in your bookmarks, so you could find a specific project more easily.

I like the folders idea.

Also if we could bookmark entire boards, like the ones I normally check, like the Embroidery ones, Pet Crafts, etc.   It would help when I just have a few minutes on the computer and could really quickly get to the boards I want to check.

first and foremost, i love love LOVE the bookmarks feature. it's so handy! thanks for adding it, leah!

it would rock super-hardcore, though, if there were some way to sort the bookmarks we have. while it's handy to have the ones with the newest comments on the top, i sometimes forget why i have something bookmarked until i look at the thread and go, "oh yeah, there's that tute i wanted" or "that gave me an awesome idea." if we could have folders that we could sort, manage, and place various threads in, it would be really handy. i'm not sure how much work it would be to do this (i'm guessing a lot!), but i know i would appreciate and use the crap outta a feature like this. whaddya other craftsters think?

i found a suggestion kinda like this on this thread http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=69341.0, but i wasn't sure if this was the same thing they were talking about. plus, it's an old thread anyways. sorry mods, if i posted this outta place.

Agreed it would rock super-hardcore.

I do like the bookmarks feature, I am so grateful for it, but yeah I have a ton of things bookmarked, and it would be nice if I could somehow organize them.

I've thought this too - tagging bookmarks would be great! If we could get that, it would be awesome. If the software doesn't do that, or for some other reason it's not possible, one alternative would be to use del.icio.us (http://del.icio.us) to bookmark the posts that you want. I haven't tried it for forum posts, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. With del.icio.us, you can add your own description about the bookmark ("I got the idea for that crochet project from post #7") and then add tags to it (maybe tag all the craftster posts with a "craftster" tag so you can pull them from your other bookmarks more easily?) ... Anyway, just thought that might help, if anyone is interested!

Folders would be great. I have so many things bookmarked, its becoming hard to find things!

[leah]

Folder *would* be awesome. I wrote that feature in from scratch and it would take a loooong time to make it have bookmarks capabilities. Adding labels would be easier though. Maybe I could do that. I bet that the software we use here will eventually have a built-in bookmark system with folders!

I thought it might be fun if a thread also kept count of number of bookmarks along with number of replies and number of views.  Not crucial by any stretch of the imagination...

I was thinking about something similar today... it can be listed alphabetically by topic. What about an option to list it also by category? I think it shouldn't be so difficult... though I know absolutely nothing about programming.
Because, unfortunatelly, the topic often doesn't say anything about the project, it often just says something about the colour etc...

I don't know about you, but I've bookmarked A LOT of threads on Craftster and my bookmarks are way out of control. It'd be cool if there was a way to organize them.
