Improve error message when bookmark limit reached

Feature
1

Right now, when you hit the max bookmarks per day limit, the only error message you receive is Sorry, an error has occurred.

A more helpful error message is honestly needed here. I would suggest something like what you see for hitting the like limit, preferably with a countdown to the reset.

You have reached the max number of bookmarks for the day. You will be able to add more bookmarks in X hours

Failing the fancier coding, a simpler message warning users have reached the max limit would do the job nicely.

You also receive the same error message when you try to bookmark a post in a topic that is archived which is really confusing.

The message shown when the bookmark limit is reached was improved as suggested.

A computer screen displays an error message that reads: "An error occurred. You have reached the maximum number of daily bookmarks. You can create more bookmarks in a few seconds." (Captioned by AI)

However, if max bookmarks per day is 0, it always tells the user that they can bookmark again in a few seconds.

Bookmarking posts in archived topics works fine for me

Good catch. In this case, they shouldn’t really see bookmarks at all. I’ve reported this to my team so we can fix this up.

Beyond that, I think we can go ahead and close this out since the original issue has been addressed.
