Administrators AY Mod Posted February 14, 2019 Administrators Share Posted February 14, 2019 I have installed a new feature for members; a capacity to bookmark content within RMweb. From the dropdown menu accessed by clicking on your username at the top right of the screen you will see a My Bookmarks link. From here you can create your own sub-folders for bookmarks e.g. modelling reference, prototype reference etc. You can then access any bookmarked content from here. At the bottom of each post (please note you can only Bookmark posts, not pages) there is a Bookmark link - clicking on that adds it to your bookmarks and if you have created any sub-folders you can choose where to save it to. You can choose for your bookmarks to be public or private - I would suggest private (in fact if I could have removed the public option I would have). Bookmarks can be removed at the relevant post or within My Bookmarks. This is a neat way of saving material for later reference without being reliant upon your browser (and saving space in your browser's bookmarker. 9 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Neil Posted February 15, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 15, 2019 I've set up four bookmark categories, I may be doing something stupid, but some of the posts I've bookmarked show up in more than one category. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Matt C Posted April 29, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 29, 2019 A very useful feature. How many times when reading through posts do you think "thats handy, must remember it for the future" and then promptly forget it. My first category is 'computing tips' now anything useful I see for tips on using the forum get bookmarked into there. You can set up as many Categories as you find useful so track electrics ? Kadees ? Weathering tips ? Then later go to your bookmarks 'click' and your right back to that handy post Nice one Andy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilton 34041 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Hi, a very useful feature, thanks. Excuse my ignorance but what does the 'sticky' feature do when turned on? I note it's default is off. Phil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Has this feature vanished from the new set up? Can't find it in replies and also can't see my bookmarked collection in my profile. I hope it hasn't gone as it was a very useful feature. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdb82 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 It's been a while since I used the bookmark feature, and I can't for the life of me find how to access posts I have previously bookmarked. I've probably looked straight past it several times, but if anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd most appreciate it :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, something beginning with B. Your gonna have to give me a clue. Looked at that and can't see it. What I can see is Your Achievements, Activity/Blogs, warning points, followers, about pirouets, profile info, recent profile visitors, edit profile, cover photo, See my activity plus the main menu bar. Thing is if I inspect the code for the page I can see the link (and it works as I clicked it), but if I do a text search on the page as loaded for bookmark it only finds it in the content of this thread which is in the activity section so its not as if you hid it in white text on a white background.

Cowley 47521 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 For some reason when I click on ‘Content I’ve posted in’ it just seems to freeze for me on my phone now. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to bookmark things rather than use this function anymore? Any help would be much appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
