+1 to Aaron and Arvids. I’d like the Bookmarks portlet to support preconfigured links, targeting ability and a way to let users choose links from a list of preconfigured links. We are currently using the Bookmarks portlet in our portal but only about 320 users store their links there. We also offer our users a Services portlet (CMS based) with hard coded SSO links to different online services we offer. I’m thinking that maybe something like Announcements portlet’s subscription feature would be useful for the Bookmarks portlet as well.

I completely agree with Aaron - if links could be pushed for users based on their groups, it would boost Bookmarks Portlet usage in portals. Without such feature it's hard to disagree with Drew regarding social portals and browser. At the moment we've removed BM portlet and placed some bookmarks in simple JSP page which gives the links to internal systems based on user groups (we distinguish students, employees and helpdesk staff). So the feature of having bookmarks in portal is desired (at least for us), but not in the way BM portlet provides it now. -- Arv?ds 2013/12/11 Julien Gribonvald <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> We had a long time wait for a such feature to integrate this portlet, because without a such feature it's useless (in our mind) - like some other told - the browser do exactly the sames things and more you can sync it between all your computers. Else we are working on an enhancement on one of our portlets that will do this works (push/pre-pend/user can subscribe some links with their descriptions) and this will be organized in a 2 level tree view... Julien Le 11/12/2013 00:51, Aaron Grant a écrit : I wouldn't mind seeing in the long term a way to pre-configure links for certain groups in this portlet (i.e. set of links for graduate students, another set for undergraduate students, etc). And of course then users could additionally add more custom links to whatever they desire. I've considered also adding a mobile theme for this portlet to make it easier to click on options on mobile devices. Although due to the low usage, this has been on the back burner. -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/uportal-dev -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/uportal-dev -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected] as: [email protected] To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/uportal-dev
