Ellibereth proposed a feature to easily view all bookmarked posts within a specific topic, suggesting a filter format similar to poster filters or a layout matching the activity bookmarks page to aid navigation in topics with many bookmarks. While codinghorror initially suggested using advanced search, NateDhaliwal provided a concrete workaround: users can click the Search icon within a topic and type in:bookmarks, or use the global search with topic:<topic_id> in:bookmarks. Jonathan5 confirmed this works and added that selecting “I bookmarked” from the search dropdown also achieves the same result. Seven years after the original request, Jonathan5 celebrated that the functionality is now available, linking to a related meta discussion on easier bookmark access.
I think it would be nice if there was a way to see the set of all posts one has bookmarked from a particular topic while looking through said particular topic.
Visually doing this in a “filter” format similar to when one filters by poster may be a good way of displaying the bookmarked posts, but displaying them in a similar way to how they are displayed in activity/bookmarks can also work.
This makes it easier to find a particular set or a singular post when someone has a large amount of bookmarked posts.
That’s good to know. Thanks. I’ve also noticed that you can achieve the same effect by selecting “I bookmarked” from the “Only return topics/posts…” search dropdown.
