☆Bookmarks ⇢ Links

Bookmarks ☆ Links has an ugly bug already on the todo list that makes me wish there was a delete button. Or even better: I wish I could switch it OFF.

The links feature can be more usable if it becomes more flexible, with:

  • A button to delete selected links (one, multiple, or ‘select all’)
  • A button to promote selected links from Links ⇢ Bookmarks
  • An option to disable the Links feature, if a user only wants to use the bookmarks and highlights.

I would turn off Links because it is automatic. Even if I could curate (delete/promote) the links, this would be unwanted attention and work for me. I use a lot of links in my posts to add context to the text. I don’t want most of those links cluttering up my highlighted bookmark selection. When I do want to save the link, I just bookmark the link into my Bookmarks myself.

Thanks for the feedback. Disabling or hiding it an interesting idea. I was just working on fixing the problem of links showing up more than one time, and adding a remove link. That should roll out in the next couple of days.

Thanks for fixing the bug and adding a :put_litter_in_its_place: button. Just curious: will the many same links disappear, removed automatic from the database?
