Is there a way, or can there be, to "tag" or index a question or tutorial for easier searching? If we have a question we'd like to come back to, it would be quicker than going through all the closed questions to link back to it

Question

sammixboo · Answer

Hmm well, I have the Chrome OpenStudy Notebook Extension, and I save important links on that. The Notebook can create a library for different notes. You can post LaTeX codes there, links, anything!

sammixboo · Answer

And only you can access it

sammixboo · Answer

There is one problem though, sometimes the Notebook will erase everything on there.

jfraser · Answer

I've done that for some, but I'm looking for something other than saving multiple bookmarks.

ja1 · Answer

I like this idea. I also like that this can branch off into multiple ideas like Question search function, a "save" button for questions you like that would then appear in a private folder in your profile, or we can do a filter too where you can filter questions based on what you need.

This would be nice to keep in mind.

abhisar · Answer

Well, you can submit Tutorials at http://openstudytutorials.weebly.com . It also has a search bar on it.

Notebook is gone and has been replaced by OpenStudy Quotes... There should be a way to save OS links on OS itself. Like a favotite button and you can title the post whatever you want so you can find it for future reference. What you can do @jfraser is put the links on your Profile or save them in a word document or even bookmark them in your browser and dedicate a folder for OS bookmarks.

abhisar · Answer

Openstudy Quotes is an entirely different extension.

sammixboo · Answer

Yes. I have both Quotes and Notebook

abb0t · Answer

Ok...

thesmartone · Answer

@sammixboo I have both of them now too. It will make it easier to see all of @whitremonsterbunny17 's complicated $\LaTeX$ signature :D jk

e.mccormick · Answer

Hehe...  I was talking about something like this before... I think I know how it may get into features at some point.

confluxepic · Answer

How come the quote and copy keeps coming back and dissapearing.
@jfraser
Great idea. Did you try the suggestion box.

We are going build something like this, as Eric says.  Don't know when.  But it will allow you to save and organize your favorite questions and answers

jfraser · Answer

@Preetha that's exactly what I mean. Since a lot of similar questions tend to come up, having an index of favorite questions would make responding a whole lot faster without having to scroll through all your answered questions (sometimes from a year ago) to find the right one
