Move and Rename Bookmark Folders at DianHuaDictionary.com

You no longer have to wait for the next version of DianHua Dictionary to move and/or rename your Bookmark Folders.  That function is now available on DianHuaDictionary.com.  Though I am working on adding it to DianHua Dictionary, the chosen feature-set for the next release is proving time-consuming.  As a result, I wanted users who are using DianHua Dictionary heavily for studying to be able to reorganize Bookmarks in the interim.  

To access the feature, login to DianHuaDictionary.com, click Bookmarks from the left Menu, and navigate to the folder you want to move.  Near the top of the page, you will see a drop-down box for selecting the new parent folder (leave this to the existing folder if you just want to rename a folder).  The entry field can be used to rename the folder as needed whether or not a new parent folder is selected.  Click Move to complete the operation.

Once you have moved or renamed a Bookmark Folder, use the Sync function in DianHua Dictionary on your iPhone or iPod touch to bring the changes from the web site to your device.

Great feature - very handy :)
Like I said on another post, it would be nice to
be able to move words around from folder to folder via the website and to share
bookmarks with others, e.g. class lists or bookmarks for menu items when in a
restaurant.

Keep up the great work!

How do you delete bookmarks?

I am desperate finding a way to delete or
reorganize my bookmarks on the iphone or on dianhuadictionary.com.

Pls help.


Cheers,
Philipp

I answered Philipp's questions by e-mail but thought I should post here as well.


Deleting bookmarks is done through the iPhone with the Edit button under the
bookmarks tab or by swiping left to right on a bookmark to reveal the Delete
button.

Right now, the server does not have a delete function, and the
move/rename function has been temporarily disabled pending the bug that is
causing sync problems for everyone.

Hi,

Just wondering... do you have an estimate on when moving bookmark folders
will be back online yet? When I created new folders in the iPhone app, it placed
each folder in the previous one, so I have a very deep folder structure, instead
of a very broad one! :-)

thanks

Sorry for the delay getting back to you. I enabled the move function again this
afternoon. The main bug has been fixed, but it's possible there could be some
more unusual sync interactions. Let me know if you run into any trouble.
brice richard  - the sync option does not work   |2010-02-28 16:45:15
I have used the website to re-shuffle my bookmarks. But the sync function in the
ipod touch doesn't work. It says "an error occurred communicating with
DianHuaDictionary.com. Any other way we can re-organize the bookmarks ? This is
really important !
Jason   |2010-03-01 17:09:43
I need the e-mail address you used to create your account so I can evaluate the
sync problem you're experiencing. You can e-mail the support address or submit
the support form.

I am also having problem with syncing to dianhuadictionary.com.

First off, I
love your program, I use it everyday and can't wait to have more control over my
bookmarks!

I have this error message "No bookmarks were found in selected folders"
But i have created in the bookmark folder
Jason   |2010-03-23 13:15:51
I ran into the error once during development when I did, in fact, have bookmarks
in the system. After restarting the application to debug the problem, I
couldn't replicate it. So, my guess is that if you exit and go back into the
system, it will work.
Jason   |2010-03-31 21:40:24
Just a quick note to say I found the problem. A database upgrade wasn't being
done on new installations until the second time the application was started.
It's corrected in DH Audio, and it will be fixed in the next DianHua Dictionary
release.

Hi Jason

I love your app. I use many Chinese dictionaries including Pleco,
KCDict and many others but I love the simplicity of your app. What I really love
is being able to practice my vocab on the ipod. Just one thing. due to the lack
of multitasking of Ipod and the small keyboard, I would like to know if it
were possible for a web based DianHua sometime in the future?
Jason   |2010-04-18 21:19:49
Let me give it some thought. I haven't really planned to offer web-based tools,
but with DianHuaDictionary.com already in place, it might not be all that time
consuming.
John  - Wonderful app!   |2010-04-29 22:33:03
Your Dian Hua app is one of the best that I have seen! Congratulations on your
outstanding work!

Here is a silly question, and I've looked through your site
in case it was answered somewhere else but I didn't find it. Due to my location
where I live, AT&T isn't available - hence the iPhone isn't an option for me.
Has there been any consideration of offering this app on the Andriod OS? I
realize that it is not a simple port, but wow, this is so much better than what
is available I would really use this app over anything else!

Thanks,

John

Android is under consideration. I'll be doing an unrelated project on Android
in the coming weeks, and if I like what I see, I will consider an Android
port.

As for other platforms, my interest in Blackberry dropped dramatically
after writing an app for that platform.
Kerry L Blanchard  - Sync issue   |2010-06-05 08:51:20
I am not able to sync my bookmarks from the website to my iPhone. The sync seems
to go alright until about half bar, then locks for a short while, then I get the
Sync error dialogue box. Nothing is changed in my folder structure. Any advice?
Thanks,
Jason   |2010-06-08 19:20:48
Will you e-mail me at the support address or fill out the support form? I need
to have your e-mail address to check the account. Sorry for the trouble, but I
should be able to get it sorted quickly.
Minh Vu   |2010-06-09 23:01:09
You're the man. I like this software so much. You're instructions are kind of
useless because you're software is so easy to use.
