Automatic tagging by folder

Gix

When you create a folder, either a root or nested, you can edit the folder to automatically tag any bookmarks placed in the folder.

For example, if i have a folder called AwesomeColors that tags any bookmarks created in it with "Colors" and "Awesome"

PLEASE YES

Yes, please! I'm new to Raindrop.io, coming over from Pinboard. I see huge potential here with Raindrop, but could really use the ability to automatically trigger tags when a bookmark is added to an existing folder.

I agree with this suggestion, I think it would be great.

🙌🏽 Smart Folders for peeps with wayyyy too many bookmarks that need sorting.

Susan Pearson

Something like this would be great. I have a folder called inbox with subfolders: Tweet Threads, Blog Posts, PDFs, Magazines, and Videos. It would be great if anything added to most had the tag #ToRead automatically and in the Video subfolder #ToWatch

I was searching for this feature right now!! It's a killer feature, please add it!

I love this feature... this is exactly what I wanted to propose but was making sure someone else hadn't already suggested it.  
A great use case  would is when you need to restructure your bookmarks.  My folder structure is so dense and build out, I'd like to either switch solely to tagging bookmarks, or refactor my folder structure.  In any case, the first thing I need to leverage all my existing bookmarks is to have them tagged with their current folder.  
If the bookmarks were nested, it would add multiple tags.  After that, I would easily be able to drag tagged bookmarks into a newly refactored folder structure.  Haven't thought about the UI yet, but might try and add more detail later.

For sure something like this is needed. I thought about tagging folders but your proposal is good as well.
