    Sometimes I look here and find something I want to read later (limited for time when a long post comes up or on my phone etc) or want to review it again. I was after a check box or similar which would mark a post within a thread as favourite/important or something similar which I can then bring up in a list of links at a later time to read. I tend to spend time looking for some posts or forget about them.

    Not sure if this is already a feature, if it is great, how do I do it?

    Not a current feature. Good idea though.

    Until then, try using something like Trello to keep track of things? Using the Trello addon for your browser you can easily save a link to a page for future reference.

    Or save the the thread as a bookmark? (Keep them in a PropertyChat folder)

    I'll have to look at trello. Not sure if I can sync links between the work computer and phone, will try that too.

    If you have an iPhone you can Add to Reading List which is what I do or Bookmark into a PC folder. I think if you have a Mac you may be able use the Handover feature but haven't tried it yet.

    I also use Evernote to just copy/paste the links into different categories for future reference as searching certain words on PC can yield way too many results. This way you can sync between any device that can use this app

    I do this and since I'm using FireFox I use its inbuilt sync facility to maintain links across FF on all my platforms.
