I had a few saved bookmarks. The top of the forums shows "Bookmarks 7" but there are no bookmarks when I click on it. Where did they go?

    Hi @411pass,

    It is possible those threads are no longer available. Mine shows 25 bookmarks, but if I go to the bookmarks page there is only one thread there.

    I am not a fan of data loss, in particular in a security oriented forum.

    Hi @411pass,

    This is a known bug in Vanilla forum where bookmarks aren't updated when threads are moved or archived, they do plan to fix it in the future.

    As for our forum, we do archive the oldest threads every year, there is a lot of stale information that is no longer useful but we do move any good information into our support knowledge base as that is the primary source for up to date support information (in fact we use that to populate the search when you create a new support thread). In addition, this isn't a forum simply for security-related topics, the main focus is on supporting our 1Password customers and a lot of information is no longer useful after a year when 1Password can progress a lot. In fact, stale information can lead to confusion, mis-configuration and so on, which is why we archive them.

    Hello guys,

    I just found out a bug here on the forum. As you can see on the provided screenshot, there are 4 bookmarks announced in the top bar, but if I click on it, I cannot see any. Maybe they refer to closed issues that are not displayed in the view?
