Bookmarks

The posts, pages and members a member has saved, organised into the folders they made.

PluginUltimate Member - User Bookmarks
Endpoint groupsBookmarks, Content
PlanEvery plan

Bookmarks needs Content as well as its own group, because a saved post is read through the content endpoints like any other post.

Drag Bookmarks onto a navigation bar or into the side drawer.

The save control itself appears on Posts, Single Post, Products and the Directory once the Bookmarks group is on. This screen is where saved things are read back.

Opens on falls back to All when the sub-list you chose is switched off on your site.

Folders cannot create what your site does not have. A site that disables folders in Ultimate Member shows one flat list whatever this is set to.

The saved members sub-tab needs a site switch

Section titled “The saved members sub-tab needs a site switch”

Enable bookmarks for profiles in Ultimate Member is off by default. With it off, the saved members sub-tab has nothing to show and the screen explains why rather than rendering an empty list.

If you want saved members as a screen of their own instead of a sub-tab, place Saved Members.

Folders first, or whichever list you chose. Searching filters across everything saved rather than within the current folder. With Let members manage on they can make a folder, rename it, delete it, and remove anything they saved.
