Question for D.U. admins: Is it possible?

[Mimosa]

I've wondered if it is possible to make the topics we 'Recommend'-even if we haven't posted a comment- become topics we can follow automatically when we log in. Is there any way to make those topics we recommend become topics which will automatically 'pop up' first?

1. If you Bookmark threads as you read them, you'll create your own list

That list will appear when you open "My DU".

Just in case your request can't happen.

2. Do you mean bookmark on my own bookmark tool?

That would be a recipe for disaster. I don't manage bookmarking well. I reserve it for keeping links to websites I may want to revisit.

7. No--it's DU Bookmarking

At top left of each thread you'll see "Bookmark this thread." Then you access you bookmarked threads either through My DU or through Options.

3. I don't have that when I open up "My DU"

How's that done?

4. It's under "Options" not "my DU"

[pinboy3niner]

5. It's under both

When you open My DU, there's a Bookmarks icon at the top.

8. Hmph. Appears you're correct.

You'd think that after 6 years here, I'd have known that.

11. LOL!

Join the club--I learn something new here every day (often as a result of my own mistakes). :)

12. Son of a gun! I never noticed that before. Live Fivegan, I've been here six

years and I never saw that before!

Thanks!!

:hi:

13. Your thanks may be premature. It can be both a blessing...and a curse

If you're having trouble managing your own bookmarking tool, wait until you've accumulated tons of DU bookmarks, LOL!

I tend to be a lot better at bookmarking than I am at UN-bookmarking. One of these days, eventually, I may actually get around to cleaning out my voluminous bookmark files... :)

15. I have bookmarks from 2004, and of course the famous Walt Starr post!

16. OK (nt)

That's a keeper! :rofl:

6. At the top of this page, under the DU logo, look for a list of 3 options above the OP...

The list is:
Printer-friendly format
Email this thread to a friend
Bookmark this thread

Click on Bookmark this thread, and it will be bookmarked to your account in DU.

10. THANK you!!!!

I have never even noticed that option. And i missed it while looking, but your "map" was crystal clear.
Had no idea we could do that.

Duh.....

9. The option to be notified when someone replies to

your post would be nice. Not necessarily an e-mail message, but a link to the thread similar to an PM notification.

14. THANK YOU!!! I never noticed that!!!
