Bookmarks Bar

The bookmarks bar appears right below the channel header, only if there are bookmarks in the channel.

There is no way to hide the bookmarks bar on mobile if there are bookmarks within a channel.

If there are no bookmarks, the bookmarks bar would not appear.

Adding a bookmark

A user can add a bookmark by doing two things.

1. Clicking the plus button on the bookmarks bar.

2. Clicking the plus button in the channel info modal.

Adding a bookmark popup

If you click on add a bookmark, a popup appears allowing you to choose a file or a link.

1. Adding a link

A user can add any valid link. As soon as the user enters a link, we fetch the open graph data, image and title, and display it. The user has a choice to change the title or the image to whatever he wants.

Updating bookmark icon

The user should be able to revert to the original bookmark icon if needed. So we would be storing that in the emoji picker. If not that, we can have a reset link if easier to revert back to the original icon.

If the link is invalid, we’ll show an error:

2. Adding a file

As soon as the user clicks on attach a file, a user can go through the same process as the attach file option in the post menu.

The user can only add one image at the time, and would have the option to change the image icon appearing on the bookmark and title.

How it displays with other banners

It would always be pinned right below the channel header.

Editing a bookmark

You can see bookmark settings by long pressing on it. That would open the edit bookmark menu, allowing you to edit, delete, and share the bookmark.
