UsingAigaion/Bookmarklist
From AigaionWiki
Aigaion allows users to maintain a persistent bookmark list of publications, build up while browsing through the database of topics and authors and publications. One can collect a number of publications throughout the whole database in this list, and then perform a number of multi-publication actions on them, such as deleting them or assigning them all to a certain topic.
Each user account can have one bookmark list. Its contents will be stored persistently. That is, when the user logs out, the contents will still be available upon the next login.

How to enable bookmark lists?
To enable a user to use the bookmark list, an admin must assign the "bookmarlist" user right to the account. As soon as that user logs out and logs in again, he can use the bookmark list.
Guest users cannot be assigned the bookmark list right, as different concurrent guest users would interfere with the contents of each others' bookmark list (remember, there's one bookmark list per account, not one per session).
How to fill the bookmark list?
- You can add single publications on their overview page.
- You can add all publications in a topic on the topic view page.
- You can add all publications of an author on the author page.
- You can add publications in a publication list by checking the bookmarking checkbox at the right of the summary display.
What can you do to the publications on the bookmark list?
- add them all to a certain topic
- remove them all from a certain topic
- construct a new (named) topic containing exactly those publications on the bookmark list
- export all publications on the bookmark list in any of the Aigaion export formats
- change the read or edit access levels of all publications on the bookmarklist (e.g. set them all to 'publicly readable'
- delete all publications on the bookmark list in the database
How to add *all* publications to the bookmarklist?
Sometimes one wants to add *all* publications to a bookmark list. This can be done using the following link:
<aigaion_root>/index.php/bookmarklist/addtopic/1
NOTE: if you then delete all-on-bookmarklist, you are losing the full contents of your database. This is actually not very funny if you spent some years collecting the contents of the database, so be careful...
Did we already mention that you should make regular backups?
