Bookmarks will only be available if your Confluence administrator has enabled the Social Bookmarking plugin.

The Social Bookmarking plugin allows you to share bookmarks with your team. You can create a bookmark and save it in a Confluence space. To send the bookmark to other Confluence users, simply label it for their personal spaces or for public spaces. You can also subscribe to a bookmarks RSS feed.

A bookmark is a page which points to a website or other URL. The website or URL can be within or external to Confluence. The bookmark can also contain comments from the person who created the bookmark, telling you why the website is interesting.

Ask a colleague to bookmark interesting things for you while you're away

Going away, and don't want to monitor all your RSS feeds or watch the pages while you're on holiday?

  • Ask a friend or a colleague to bookmark the news items and other sites that they think you should know about.
  • When you get back, scan your bookmarks at your leisure. No worries that the important items will drop off your RSS feeds or clog your mailbox!

The plugin documentation gives an overview of the bookmark functionality. In addition, here are some detailed instructions:

      Hi,

      Unfortunately, Confluence doesn't support this feature. However, I would advice you to raise a feature request at the issue tracker at:

      Alternatively,I would advice you to direct your questions to our forum and mailing list as there might be other user/developers who have already implemented it and should be able to share their ideas with you.

      Regards,

    Hello,

     wenn I work with the Social Bookmark Plugin and the RSS feed, I'm missing the possibility to sort the entries, like i.e. in Firefox with a folder structure.

    Actually I just have a long list in the RSS feed or even in the bookmark page in Confluence.

    Is there a better way of organizing these  link collection?

      Hi Joe,

      As far as I am concerned, the Social Bookmarking Plugin (the plugin that cater the bookmark functionalitites in Confluence) does not currently have this feature. If you are keen on it, feel free to lodge a new feature request at its issue management tracker:

      Meanwhile, you may want to filter out the bookmarks list by appending &labels=YOUR_LABELS_SEPARATED_WITH_COMMA to the RSS feed URL.

      Hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      Azwandi
