    Hi guys!

    Our forum is growing at light speed since Simtools release! :cool:
    There are indeed many daily messages! and I cannot remember each of them anymore...
    and sometimes I would like to bookmark some of them in order to find them back easily :)

    Maybe this new functionnality could be added to our forum?

    @RaceRay likes the idea and found a plugin!
    are you interested in? would you like to share the cost? (32$)

    Where I have to pay? I would sponsor that feature if the "majority" wants (and like to use...) this add-on.

    I tend to forget about the bookmarks anyway. So I use Google and add "site:xsimulator.net" to find for example my favourite dashboard: Click here!

    Cant we just select to watch posts Im sure through your profile you can then see a list of watched posts. ?
    But not a silly idea of bookmarks if it makes it easier for everybody why not.

    $32 for bookmarks? WTF?

    I just do like @eaorobbie and @value1
    You just use the search function now as it is, granted it may give you a lot more results than planned, but it works.
    Any search engine does the same thing.
    Saving bookmarks in good in principle, but most people remember a part of the topic, not the whole thing. Hence a search engine to give you a wide range of results.


    Count me out!

    I use Firefox and if you bookmark anything of interest as you go along and just start to type the query in the awesome bar it will automatically bring up all of your related bookmarks. Hence I don't bother trying to manage bookmarks, I just lump them together and use the awesome bar search feature. I wouln't be surprised if other browsers have implemented a similar feature, as it is so handy in managing info.
