Bookmark URLs exported to Delicious and Ma.gnolia break at ampersand character

Sun, 24 Aug 2008 19:52:31 -0000

I just discovered that when I use the "save elsewhere" feature on a bookmark with an ampersand in the URL, the exported URL breaks at the ampersand character. The ampersand and everything following it is dropped. I can't believe i never noticed this till now -- it means a bunch of my delicious bookmarks point to the wrong page.

For example, when I bookmarked the URL
http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=how-loss-of-privacy-may-mean-loss-of-security&print=true

the following URL was sent to Ma.gnolia and Delicious:
http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=how-loss-of-privacy-may-mean-loss-of-security

Del.icio.us and Ma.gnolia exporting has become erratic

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 04:38:22 -0000

For the last few days, only a fraction of the bookmarks I've saved using the Diigo toolbar have been exported to del.icio.us and Ma.gnolia. Based on the posting times, it looks as though exporting stopped, (but not completely) sometime on July 28. SInce then, I have posted fourteen links to Diigo. Four were posted to del.icio.us, and five were posted to Ma.gnolia (the same four, plus one more), all today. The last batch were posted to Diigo using the toolbar sometime on July 28 and were forwarded to del.icio.us and Ma.gnolia around 11 pm EDT, July 30.

The relevant links are:
http://www.diigo.com/user/nathanrein
http://del.icio.us/myroblyte
http://ma.gnolia.com/people/nbr/bookmarks

Any insight would be helpful. I am very dependent on the export feature.
post by nathanrein on 2008-07-31
I don't know if there is a link, but del.icio.us has been upgraded to a new version. Perhaps a (temporary ?) problem of compatibility ? I myself had this problem when I discovered that del.icio.us had changed.

That could be the explanation. I was doubtful since the same problem seemed to be affecting Ma.gnolia exports the same way. However, today, Ma.gnolia posts seem to have "caught up" to Diigo, but del.icio.us posts haven't (I guess I have to start calling it delicious.com now).
post by nathanrein on 2008-08-01
Update: One link I posted on August 1 was sent to delicious properly. Today (two hours ago) I posted two more, and they did not get sent to delicious.com. Posting to Ma.gnolia seems to be working fine. I have another service (Clipmarks.com) which also exports to delicious and they are having no trouble.

I have posted two more bookmarks and they have been automatically saved in my delicious account.

Update: After several successful posts a few days ago, none of my Diigo bookmarks have been saved to delicious. I had an email exchange with Joel from Diigo, who said the problem was on delicious's side. However, I have several other services auto-posting to delicious without trouble, and it seem like other people haven't been having the same problem. So, for the moment, I'm going to hold off on posting anything to Diigo, since it doesn't look like this issue's going to be solved.

On the other hand, posting to Ma.gnolia seems to be working fine.
post by nathanrein on 2008-08-04
I agree with Nathan, ma.gnolia seems fine, but simpy and delicious are no-gos.

I still have no problem with delicious. Well, to be honest, I had the problem once or twice, but I had just to try again the following day and it worked.

Some time after making my original post, the problem seems to have been corrected. Over the past week or two, I have been finding that exports to delicious have been working quickly and reliably. Sorry, I should have posted this update earlier.
post by nathanrein on 2008-08-21
Yeah nevermind, it appears as if "Validate account" only validates your username, and not the password. I re-entered my credentials and it was fine.

Diigo could have probably let me know that it was just a password problem though. :|

But where are the tag lists??

bundles |del.icio.us |list |toolbar | post by oddity on 2008-07-16

Hi,
Am new to diigo and it looks great except...
how do I easily get to a list of my tags?

With the del.icio.us toolbar i can easily see bundles of tags on the toolbar and then click on a title to see all my tags.

In diigo, the closest i have found it opening the sidebar and typing in a tag i want... but i dont want to have to type each time, isnt there a way to see a list of tags without going through the website?
post by oddity on 2008-07-16
Hi Oddity,
I am sorry there is no way to view all tags in the toolbar now. However, I will record your post as a feature request.

del.icio.us |diigo |tools | post by zrezvi on 2008-06-11

But can we emulate del.icio.us? It is has such a clean interface.

Better still, why not create a 'lite' Diigo format that users can switch to which emulates del.icio.us

And what about that toolbar: when are we going to get direct access to tags?
Many thanks

I save to Diigo and Del.icio.us at the same time all the time. For the last month or so, anything that saved in the Del.icio.us Notes field that starts with "annotated link" has extra characters e.g.
Annotated link http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Flifehacker.com%2Fsoftware%2Fquicksilver%2Fhack-attack-the-quicksilver-video-extravaganza-250949.php

hm.. strange i'm sure i was replying on this earlier.. anyway...

my problem is that it changed from before...
the new solution is to use copy/paste if i want right thing in del.icio.us..
copy/paste is so old school and unproductive.. i expect much more from diigo.com...
post by marcell on 2008-04-26
1) Select the text
2) Click Bookmark button on the toolbar, the text will appear in the description field.

i don't use diigo toolbar.. i use context menu.. i have just address bar and back button (to notify if there are pages back in history) in the same line with File, Edit, View, History... i use yubnub.org so i can use address bar for most of my searchs.. i don't have any of the toolbars except the one with File, Edit...Back button and Adress bar... that's the way how i get more space for content.. that's very important for smaller resolutions/screen...

your suggestion doesn't work in my case.. i would need to do even more actions than to copy whatever i highlighted and then paste it into description field...

why did you change that behavior from previous version? i still don't understand that...

it would be better if you would keep description empty then putting what it is now:
"Annotated link http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nextgendesigncomp.com%2Fentrydetail.aspx%3Fid%3D866"

atm my del.icio.us looks like shit having that string as description for every link ...

imho it's better to have the first highlight twice on diigo (once in description then in highlighted part) then to lose description for del.icio.us... the other solution is to put first highlight just for sending it to del.icio.us (+ other bookmark services)... as it was before...

this is serious failure from the perspective of design of the user interface.. i hope you won't see this feedback as yet another pain in the ass customer but someone who really likes, respect and use diigo but still thinks it's good to keep social networks from before on del.icio.us...

atm i have two options to keep del.icio.us ugly and useless without descriptions or to do extra work in pasting description for every link... if i didn't have the feature in old diigo i would probably just dream about it but now i'm disappointed that you changed something to worst...

post by hagure on 2008-03-27
Like to clarify once more:

Since the "Get all bookmarks" API from del.icio.us impose frequency limits, if many users are trying to access their import API at once, then your import request may be denied by delicious and fail to complete.

If you experience difficulty, you can either try again at a later time. Or, in a few more days (or sooner) we will soon have an alternative method (ie. export then import to diigo) to assist everyone with a successful import. So stay tuned!

Another FYI: our current delicious import reverses the date sequence. We will make the correction the same time and for those who have previously imported from delicious. You can simply re-import and those data will be overridden.

More info to come shortly. thanks for your patience.

If its a timeout issue on their side could you not look into importing in chunks, rather than the whole list?

the import seems to be working, but i have a question: is this a one time import or is it a permanent feed from delicious?

if i add new tags to delicious, will have to re import them to diigo or will the automatically flow into diigo?

BTW, great service, great product!

Yeah, this feature was the deal breaker for me.

Quick question, if bookmarks are updated (say with new tags or descriptions) does this carry over to other services as well?

Is it coming back?

post by helaine on 2008-03-25
Hi Helaine,
We didn't find the Furl APIs, so it's hard to save to Furl.
I did some explanation on how we supported those sites before and why we stopped supporting them in the new version http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/2740
post by joel on 2008-03-25
Hi Joel,

It's a shock to find an "upgrade" that takes away features with no warning. Is it possible to go back to the previous version?

Before Diigo, I used other "scripts/bookmarklets" that allowed me to save to del.icio.us and Furl, among others, simultaneously. These were written by individuals, so it wouldn't seem to be that hard.

FYI - Without the ability to save to del.icio.us and Furl, I would not have tried Diigo - too much of a downside - too much extra work to save to different places so I could go back if I didn't like Diigo.

Since I've been using Diigo, I like it and now have to decide if I like it enough to lose Furl.

Hi y'all!

I have seen how links are bundled in del.icio.us by selecting tags on a taglist and am wondering if there would be some way to incorporate that into the Diigo listing system?

Thanks for a great bookmarking system!

post by aceharddrive on 2008-03-11
Thanks and welcome to the Diigo Community !

Have you tried diigo's new "list" feature yet? it allows you put specific collection of links into one folder.

If there are tag(s)-specific bookmarks, you can even do a tag search first, then do a batch editing by checking off the ones that you wish to add to a list by using the "Add to list" pull down menu in "My Bookmarks"

Lists in many ways are much more flexible than simple tag-bundle, since it allows you to put specific collections together. Note that in our system, you can also easily edit tags and merge them together as well..

Tag bundle - not completely ruling out supporting this feature, but we must be convinced of enough use scenarios to justify for the development effort. Welcome your and other's input.

Changes not updated to other services

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 14:17:05 -0000

blinklist |del.icio.us |ma.gnolia | post by windyn on 2007-11-29

Hi

I use Diigo to bookmark/tag into Diigo, Blinklist, del.icio.us and ma.gnolia which works very well, except:

If I edit the bookmark using the edit function from a list of bookmarks and, for instance change the tag(s) the change is not updated in the other services.

But, if I navigate to the bookmarked site and click on the Diigo button on the toolbar to bring up the full panel and change the tags and then Submit and Close the tags are updated across the other services.

Obviously I can work round by using the toolbar, but it would be good if the other method worked too.

Windyn,
It costs too much for us to sync the bookmarks by implementing save, delete, edit and other functions.
Could you like it to be a premium feature later?
post by joel on 2007-12-06
Hi Joel

Sorry, I didn't make the bug report clearer.

The changes are written to the other services if you use the toolbar button, so the cost issue is irrelevant.

The problem is that the changes are not written if using the edit function from the bookmark list.

So the functionality is already present via the toolbar but the edit function from the bookmark list is not calling the same code to perform the update.

Regarding delete, if the functionality to update the bookmarks is present via the toolbar button it should be a minor change when calling the other services APIs to perform a delete.

Premium feature - no edit function is a bug, and delete a bug too.

Thanks

Nigel

1.Currently, the post to other services feature is done in the client side (toolbar), not in the server side.
2. If we provide the function you suggest in the post, the cost will be high when people do batch operations and other services may also ban our IP.

OK I understand about potential hazards for batch operations, so don't enable that functionality for batch operations.

However, if the functionality already exists in the toolbar, just ensure the same code is called when editing a bookmark from the bookmark list.

Delete of single bookmarks in other services shouldn't be hard to implement either and surely is a bug if synchronisation of other services is enabled via the options panel.

Bookmarks not deleted from other services

blinklist |del.icio.us |delete |ma.gnolia | post by windyn on 2007-11-29

Hi, thought it sensible to separate these into two posts.

I use Diigo to bookmark/tag into Diigo, Blinklist, del.icio.us and ma.gnolia .

If I delete a bookmark using the delete function from a list of bookmarks it is only deleted in Diigo and not the other services.

I think that Diigo should delete from the other services too; although it would make sense for this to be an option somewhere.

importing from Delicious- backwards

Thu, 15 Nov 2007 22:40:40 -0000

I just imported my del.icio.us bookmarks. Does Diigo not transfer the same SAVE DATE as when it was saved on Delicious? I do know that BlueDot/Faves.com performs this way. Also, after importing, my Diigo bookmarks are now backwards (my most current saved Delicious bookmark is now last in Diigo)

Got it - having our guy looking into it. Will fix.
