Not anything like the built in bookmarks function, but an extension that supports bookmarks. I imagine it would be simple, with a page name and accompanying URL. I would really like this. At present, I don't have time to learn how to make extensions and I find they are too hard at the moment for me to get the hang of to 'fudge' my way through. I don't know what I can offer for the extension. Donations? Bounty? Some other service. I am not sure. If you think of anything, let me know. Thanks to anyone who can help.

    So you're saying you want something that is like del.icio.us in Vanilla? Or something else?
  • nathannathan
    Not that elaborate. Just a personal links page where users add a page, giving it a title and punching in the URl. I understand there is a del.icio.us extension already for Vanilla.

    I imagine they would just be displayed like to-do items, with a little edit and delete button beside them.

    Are you familiar with WordPress? If so, are you looking for something like the links table for storing and displaying links?
  • nathannathan
    I'm not, but I am going to go ahead and say yes. Textpattern has a similar feature.

    I guess it would be like the SidePanel extension, only create an admin page for adding items (links) to be displayed in the side panel.

    I would like to see it more like the to-do extension (Jazzman? :P). Have its own page and a list of the links running down it. A similar sorting method maybe. They are to be personal links only. Not public ones.

    *Adds it to the list of stuff to look at if noone gets there first but makes sure not to make any solid promises and end up disappointing people again :D

    I've long thought a Scuttlish type of bookmarking feature for a forum would be terrific. Scuttle is released GNU/GPL meaning anyone interested in creating a bookmarking mod could simply modify it to integrate with Vanilla's user / login system.

    edit: fixed the Scuttle link noted by WallPaper.
