I used it 2 days ago, and my old bookmarks were still there and working. I will have a better look later.

Yes, my bookmarks are there. I just can't see how to add to them.

Easy enough to do Paul - When looking at the post you want to bookmark click the bookmark icon and add your label then click the submit button and it will be saved in your bookmarks.

This is what I see when I click on the bookmark icon. No way of adding anything there.

That's in your user control panel Paul, you need to be looking at the actual post in the main threads to add the post. :)

Ah! I see it! Lost amongst the line of other mildly informative icons. It looks like an extracted premolar tooth to me. Previously I had been clicking on the tab at the top which actually says Bookmarks. How very stupid to expect that would work.

I just tried it and bookmarked your post, then navigated to bookmarked posts and there it was.
Also one from 2017 :)

Which opened with no bother

To be answered or whatever. I very vaguely remember this being bookmarked until a decision was taken on how to deal with it,

Blame it on the heat Paul :-D Still, now you have it I think we may find lots more uses for it as mods than we did as users. I have already bookmarked BSI Procedure and Donation procedure for easy access when I need to use them!! :)

I used it a couple of weeks ago to add a new bookmark and was ok then.
