Confluence Docs 3.0 : Adding a bookmark This page last changed on Sep 22, 2008 by jnolen. 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.
| Permission to create bookmarks You can save a bookmark in any space where you can create a page. You can label a bookmark for any space, using the space key as described below.
You can add a bookmark via: A bookmark icon on your browser toolbar. This is the quickest way. A space's 'Add Bookmark' action. The 'Add Bookmark' link on the 'Space Bookmarks' screen. Where will the bookmark be stored? You can: Choose the space where the bookmark will be saved, and also optionally, send the bookmark to a colleague by labelling it for their personal space or label the bookmark for a global space. To add a bookmark via the bookmark icon, If you haven't already done so, add the bookmark icon to your browser toolbar. Go to the website you're interested in.

Use 'for_~username' to send the bookmark to a Confluence user's personal space. e.g. `for_~joebloggs`. To categorise the bookmark in the way we usually use labels. Click the 'Save' button. The bookmark will be saved in Confluence. You can view the bookmark on the 'Space Bookmarks' screen for the space you chose from the dropdown list.
