The Ultimate Member User Bookmarks Addon is a premium extension for the Ultimate Member plugin that allows your community members to save and organize content across your WordPress site. It is designed to boost user engagement by giving members a personal "library" within their profiles.
As of December 2025, it remains an essential tool for social networks, educational sites, and resource directories built on WordPress.
The addon integrates a "Save for Later" style system directly into the Ultimate Member ecosystem:
Bookmark Folders: Users can create custom folders (e.g., "Recipes," "Tutorials," "To Read") to categorize their saved items.
Support for Custom Post Types: Beyond standard posts and pages, it can bookmark WooCommerce products, portfolio items, or any other CPT.
Profile Bookmarking: An optional feature that allows users to bookmark other member profiles, effectively creating a "favorites" list of community members.
Visibility Control: Users can keep their bookmark folders private or allow others to view their public collections via their profiles.
Bookmark Button: Adds a customizable icon or text button (via shortcode or automatic placement) to your content.
Profile Tab: A dedicated "Bookmarks" tab appears in the user’s front-end profile where they can manage, delete, or move items between folders.
AJAX-Powered: Bookmarking happens instantly without a page refresh, providing a modern, "app-like" feel to the interaction.
