Easily mark an entry as "Favorite" entry

Open OLLI-S opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

Summary

Add an easy way (just one mouse click) to mark an entry as "Favorite" entry.

Details

In KeePassXC I often search for the same entries, so it would be cool to define an entry as "Favorite" entry so I can find the entry quicker. Technically here the tag (#508) "favorite" is added/removed, but in the UI users can do this with a star icon on the page "Entry" (when they edit an entry).

Example how this will look in the UI of KeePassXC (first screen shows the "favorite" tag is set, second screen shows the favorite tag not set):

With this icon users can easily mark an entry as "Favorite" with just one mouse click, They do not have to switch to an other page and add the text "Favorite" manually to the tags field.

Marking favorites is the one really useful feature that I feel is missing in KeepassXC. In my opinion, it should be based on the tags featre which is already implemented in Keepass.

My workaround is to place two backticks `` in the first line of the Notes section of entries that I would tag "Favorite". Then, I can simply type two backticks into the search bar to quickly access these entries. This can all be done easily with the keyboard, no mouse required.

These items should also be shown first in the list in the browser plugin

Now that we have tags you can add a favorite tag and use that

Re-opening since the spirit of this request is a one-click option to add the "Favorite" tag for the user.

Showing favorite entries topmost in the browser plugin or yet better, even highlighting them / showing a start next to them or whatever would indeed be really nice. Also it would be nice if the favorite section could then be added somewhere else than at the bottom where the other tags are - for example with a button in the top toolbar or above the root folder in the tree view.

I'm happy for this to be closed, I think the tag works well. You can right-click an entry and select tag/ favourite, that's one click. Job done. Great work.
