Bundles of joy

[jedusaur]

Tag bundles are now available on Pinboard! LET US REJOICE.

Questions Maciej has addressed on Twitter about the feature:

• There is currently no way to see tags by bundle when saving a new link, but he said he'd think about how to incorporate something along those lines.


• There is no bundle importer from delicious.


• The bundles list box is not pasteable; you have to move tags into it individually.


• He has no plans to make bundles available within the bookmarklets.


• One user has reported getting an error message when trying to save a large number of tags to a bundle. Refreshing fixed the problem, but it's happened to her more than once. He's working on fixing it.


• The filter in the bundling editor only works with the beginning of tags, not character sequences anywhere within them.


• If you have the Stylish add-on activated, you'll need to deactivate it to be able to use tag bundles. [EDIT: This does not seem to be universal, so check to make sure--you might be able to keep yours.]

Now I have to go back to delicious and get all the tags that go in each bundle. /o\ /o\ /o\

Yeah, I had to do that, too. I didn't even remember what all my bundles were. /o\

Usefulness of tag bundles

[ein_myria]

I was going, "yay!" when the announcement went out but I'm having trouble figuring out what to actually use the functionality for these days. I mostly bookmark fics and I used to do tag bundles by fandom so it's easier to find pairings but my tagging system has changed in such a way I don't really need them anymore... ^^;;;

I feel like I'm just doubling up the work if I do fandom tag bundles again. lol Any ideas?

Same here, lol.

I use Stylish and I can use tag bundles. Maybe it depends on what userstyle you're using? (I'm using my own. I'm going to have to rework it so it works properly on the bundle pages too, and fix whatever has happened to the tags in the sidebar.)

Huh, okay. Edited.
