User / SEO summary
Storyloft bookmarks mark named spots in a long manuscript so you can return instantly—chapter openings, scenes to revise, research anchors. Authors searching for Add Bookmark use the selection bubble menu, then the left Bookmarks tab (beside Contents) to navigate. Bookmarks are for jumping around while writing; Comments discuss passages, and Versions snapshot whole drafts.

Step 4 — Open the Bookmarks tab
In left Navigation, switch from Contents to Bookmarks.
Step 5 — Jump to a bookmark
Click a bookmark row. Storyloft scrolls/selects that range.
Step 6 — Delete outdated bookmarks

Step 7 — Keep naming consistent
Use clear names so grouped lists under chapter headers stay scannable.
Tips
- Prefer specific names over “TODO” repeated ten times.
- If jump fails, toast may say navigation failed—retry after the editor loads.
- Bookmarks ≠ Contents headings (structure) and ≠ Comments (discussion).
- Empty copy reminds you to select text first.
