This menu will display the option to add to a temporary +bookbag, the user's default list (if any), up to ten of the user's +other bookbags, a "See all" option to allow the user to choose one of +the bags not on the menu, and to create a new list and add the record +to it. + +Choosing the temporary list from the menu will add the record to the +temporary my list as TPAC does before the addition of this feature. + +Choosing a named list will add the record to the chosen list. + +Choosing "See all" or "Add to new list" will take the user to their My +Lists page. (The only difference being that "See all" will actually +list all of the user's bookbags if they have more than the current +limit.) The My Lists page will have a new button "Add to this list" +next to each of their existing lists. In addition, if the user +creates a new list on this screen, the selected record will +automatically be added to this new list. + +You can tell all of the above is working if you are redirected to your +search results or record summary after adding to a list. If there was +a problem, you will get either an error page or will see your My Lists +page. + +Designating a Default Bookbag/list +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The user's My List screen has had a 'Make Default List' button added +for each list. Clicking the button will cause that list to be +registered as the user's default list. This is the list that will be +added to when a user chooses the Default List option on the Add to my +list menu in search or record summary. + +The current default list has a 'Remove Default List' button next to +it. Clicking this button will unset the default status of the list +and return to a state of having no default list. + +One handy way that users may want to use this feature is to create a +new list, and then designate it as the default. This list could then +be used to add records from searches based on a current topic of +interest. Changing the default list is so easy that users may want to +do so when changing search topics in order to keep their results +better organized. -- 2.11.0
