Surely this has been suggested before, but a button that updates all your bookmarks to the current moment would be so wonderful. I have not really looked at ilx since September, and while I don't want to lose all my bookmarks, clicking through all of them just to scroll down and click bookmark on the last post is a serious chore.
― Eyeball Kicks, Sunday, 19 December 2021 08:15 (two years ago) link
Haha straight after that I had the idea to go look if there WAS such a button already

Is there a way to search for an exact phrase in ILX search? In Google you can do this by enclosing the search term in double-quotes, unfortunately in ILX search this doesn't work.
― Mr. Snrub, Thursday, 8 September 2022 15:23 (one year ago) link
yes it does
― mark s, Thursday, 8 September 2022 15:26 (one year ago) link
If I search for posts containing the term “blue monday” (with quotes), and sort by newest first, then why is the first result a post that mentions Monday (the day of the week) and not the word “blue” at all? Also, if I go back and remove the quotes I get the exact same set of results, so the presence of quotes makes no difference.

― Mr. Snrub, Thursday, 8 September 2022 15:54 (one year ago) link
What I did:
Go to Search page
Under Text Search, terms: "blue monday"
Next line, click radio button for "Posts"
Under "Order Results By," click radio button for "Newest First"
Click "Search" button right under that.

If I search for posts containing the term “blue monday” (with quotes)
your browser (phone?) is helpfully converting your straight quotes (") to "smart quotes". suspect the search software wants straight ones.
― difficult listening hour, Thursday, 8 September 2022 17:03 (one year ago) link
can test by copying this text into the search box rather than typing it yourself:
"blue monday"
on an iphone i think you can force a normal quote mark by holding down the key? these are the wages of ""“aesthetics”""

Is there a keyboard shortcut for 'remove bookmark from this thread'? Actually, is there a place to check all keyboard shortcuts? Is there a keyboard shortcut for 'find all keyboard shortcuts'?

― Chewshabadoo, Thursday, 2 March 2023 17:58 (one year ago) link
i have been using 'b' for a while (to bookmark a thread or update a bookmark to the latest post on a thread), but 's' is new to me! i do think using the two in tandem could lead to subconscious drives to suggest ban people, but sometimes you have to take risks for shortcut conveniences
