How do I edit my bookmarks

Posted on 01/04/2002 4:31:05 PM PST by Michael2001

I hope I'm posting this in the right place, I apologize if I'm not. I noticed a lot of people have links to threads they like on the left hand side of their profile page. How do they do that?- It's been annoying me for a while now. I tried "edit bookmarks" which makes the most sense but I got a "you have no bookmarks to edit" message. Nothing else I tried worked. I'm usually not this stupid

Ya know. You're right. I have emailed them about some other things; maybe they are working on this, too.

Michael, in case its not clear yet, you can only "edit" bookmarks you have already added ("edit" is a bit of a misnomer in this case, you are basically allowed to delete individual threads you have bookmarked, not edit titles and such). And you can only add bookmarks by using the "Bookmark" links THAT USED TO BE at the top or at the bottom of the thread (along with the Threads/Comments/Self-Search/Search...etc).

The Bookmark link is GONE for some reason with the new software, therefore you can't add any bookmarks. Why its gone, I do not know, perhaps removed temporarily due to forum software performance or other problems.

No problem. In all fairness, though, I should probably tell you, I don't think I am real high up on God's list of 'Whose Prayers to Listen To' so you might want to seek alternative help.

That's why I didn't include the $5.

How can I change my preferences? They are currently showing up as disabled. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I don't actually prefer disabled.

I hate it when I get drunk and do stuff on the computer.

The first 2000 Michaels didn't have this problem. You're probably eating too much cheese.

Indeed.

This must be what qualifies your post as breaking news.

This is funny, because I always noticed those blue-colored links to threads that people have on the left side of their profile pages and I have absolutely no clue how they get there. And I did exactly the same thing you did, clicking the edit bookmarks.
LOL !! Fortunately, I don't care if I have any links on the profile page.
Good luck trying to figure this out. It doesn't look like anybody wants to fill you in, LOL!

Oooooh! I love moose, too, any way you want to fix it! It's really best as sausage, and served with lots and lots of CHEESE. There. I said it, and I'm glad. (I also love freesias.)

Michael, you're probably getting so much grief in this thread because you posted it as "breaking news", which its not.

Lots of funny comments here though. The funniest ones appear to be from those who didn't even notice that the "Bookmark" function was gone until this thread. I won't mention any names, but you know who you are...:)
