    Okay, I've been using Diigo a lot more, and I love it. But I need some clarity on an issue. When I visit a page, make some highlights, and then add then add comments (in the comments box) at the end of an article, I lose my annotations when the page refreshes. I have to make sure that I go to the Recent button and re-download the page in which I made the annotations. Is that how it works? If I don't re-download, then Diigo assumes it's a new page.

    Can you describe in greater detail the environment in which annotations are lost?

    > add comments (in the comments box) at the end of an article

    Do you mean, the Diigo comment box at the foot of Diigo Meta?

    Or a non-Diigo comment box within the underlying page?

    I mean the non-Diigo comment box within an underlying page.
    Here's a page where I was doing that: http://skepticblog.org/2009/10/13/capitalism-a-propaganda-story/#comment-14095

    I need to test out the issue some more. Maybe I'm not waiting long enough for the highlights to appear. But it seems as if after posting in a page's comment box that the Diigo highlights don't re-download. Seems like Diigo reads it as a new page. I can go up to Recent in the Diigo toolbar and re-open that page with the highlights.

    But I'll test it out some more and get with you. Thanks

    Diigo bookmarks and annotations are URL-specific

    As
    http://skepticblog.org/2009/10/13/capitalism-a-propaganda-story
    http://skepticblog.org/2009/10/13/capitalism-a-propaganda-story/#comment-14080 and
    http://skepticblog.org/2009/10/13/capitalism-a-propaganda-story/#comment-14095
    are separate URLs, so you end up with separate bookmarks and separated annotations:

    http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fskepticblog.org%2F2009%2F10%2F13%2Fcapitalism-a-propaganda-story?tab=comment&uname=bakari45

    Hints

    Before using Diigo, observe the URL in the toolbar of your browser.

    If you suspect that a shorter URL will present identical or near-identical content, shorten the URL and load that view of the content.

    Before making annotations, use the history part of the meta view of the page to see whether other users have bookmarked the page. Example:

    http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fskepticblog.org%2F2009%2F02%2F22%2Foilchange-rant?tab=people&gname=viewtabs

    - and if the history is suspiciously empty, wonder whether other readers are bookmarking alternative URLs for the content.

    Follow the lead from Diigo Meta to Other bookmarks from the site … to see whether other readers have boookmarked alternative URLs for the same content.

    Note however that the Community library may be not up-to-date;
    http://www.diigo.com/community/site/skepticblog.org
    currently shows none of your three bookmarks of
    Skepticblog » Capitalism-A Propaganda Story

    Regards
    Graham

    Love this idea for a Diigo Group! Sharing tips and discussing new features is super helpful. It reminds me of how you strategize to evolve in a game. Speaking of evolving strategies, did anyone ever play age of war? That was a fun one for base progression!

    Yeah, that's normal behavior with Diigo-if you don't reload it from your library, it treats it like a fresh page and won't show annotations. It's a bit like forgetting to save progress before you download game updates, but once you get used to opening pages from Recent, it works smoothly.

    That's a common confusion with Diigo, especially when dealing with dynamically loaded or refreshed pages. In many cases, if the URL changes slightly or the page reloads differently, Diigo may treat it as a new instance, which is why re-accessing it through the "Recent" section helps retain your annotations. It might also be worth checking whether the page is using dynamic scripts that alter the URL structure. For troubleshooting workflows like this or understanding how annotation tools handle page states, experimenting with explanations and technical breakdowns through chatgpt gratuit en ligne can help clarify what's happening behind the scenes and suggest possible workarounds.
