    Please help. Since two days ago, all my tags beginning with an asterisk, eg, *fav *zfav are not giving me my most important bookmarks. I receive this remark: "You have no bookmarks under *fav". It's empty. I put an asterisk so that all my most important and most visited bookmarks can be sorted to the top when I chose sort by alphabets. But now they are all gone. I cannot live without my starred bookmarks. Please help me. Diigo team, please restore them, please. Or allow me to change the tags to something else if you have decided to disallow tags with an asterisk. Please. Weep, weep.

    Tags such as *diigo was supported before, however, when you click *diigo, the system search diigo, not *diigo. In many cases, this solution works.

    We plan to support any characters in my bookmark tag-search, that means, even the tag is "*", it's also searchable. Several days ago, we switched to the new search engine quietly, unfortunately, it had some bugs as you experienced. Then, we switched back to the old search engine. After the bug in new search engine is fixed, we will put it up again.

    Thanks for your reporting.
