Bookmarks removed with new deployment

Hi Folks

I wonder if anybody suffers the same problem as this.......

I have users who are starting to make use of Server Bookmarks inside documents, however, when I deploy a new version of the document these bookmarks are all removed. I need to find a way to keep the bookmarks in place on the server even when the document is replaced with a new version.

Thanks,

We're running into the same issue. I read that you can export bookmarks, but that doesn't seem like a viable solution for end users on every deployment of an updated app.

Any ideas or insights would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Nigel,

That's strange because user bookmarks, like all collaboration objects, should be stored in the .SHARED file, not in the QVW. So replacing the QVW shouldn't affect the bookmarks. Are your users using AJAX by any chance? If so, AJAX defaults to anonymous, so you need to enable Anonymous Bookmark Collaboration in server settings.

Slightly off topic, but is it possible to disable the "Share Bookmark With Other Users" option? We're running 8.5 with the AJAX client and would like to allow users to create bookmarks. But we don't want them to be able to share them with others. I've gotten the former working, but didn't see how to disable sharing.

Jim,

I don't think that's possible with 8.5 or 9.0. I understand that it's supposed to be possible with 10.0, but I haven't had a chance to verify this myself yet.
