Title: about bookmark
Post by: ihweb on Jan 14, 2025, 09:39 AM
The bookmark function is very useful. Is there a way to export and import it? BTW, when using another computer, the bookmark is gone.

Not yet implemented....is on the list ;)

Thinking of it, you could export the cookies of your browser and import them in the other machine.
As the bookmarks are stored in a cookie.

Which browser? Every browser has his own cookies and different way to handle them.

And there is another problem: The bookmarks store the frequency with the ip address. So, frequency 7100 KHz stored from your websdr, is different from the same frequency stored from my websdr or any other.

The bookmarks code has to be rewritten from the beginning, so to save the frequencies (and any other data) without the ip address of the websdr, to a .csv file, that can be downloaded, stored, and then uploaded to any PhantomSDR websdr, so to be read. The same thing that Mehmet Ozcan NA5B (http://na5b.com/) has implemented in his Twente template WebSDR, and he has given us the code. I don't know if Phil or somebody else can work on it and adapt it to our newer PhantomSDR.

I meant, if he uses the same browser for the same website but just a different machine, then you can export it. Firefox can do this, regardless the OS.

But yes, it needs to be rewritten. However, nothing hinders a user to create his own 'website' on his desktop with his own URL's, then you can use it everywhere by just copying the html-file, pdf or whatever.
Or make bookmarks. To name a few things.

I'm sure Phil will implement it when he has time, as he has a big list of wishes. ;)
