- by Makak007, 3 months agoRated 3 out of 5Can anyone suggest how to use this extension, please?
Installed it on Portable version 96, I followed the "Start here" arrow and selected from the menu, in my case "duplicates". Then I got a list of duplicate bookmarks. But here I am stuck. I have no idea what to do next to delete the duplicates... totally lost and confused. ???
I must be missing something fundamental and I can't figure out what..
EDIT: I mean NOT deleting duplicated entries one by one but if there is a function to do it automatically by one click. (I am dealing with 3000+ entries...) - by Firefox user 16230096, 4 months agoRated 3 out of 5Mühsam, hier fehlt mindestens die Möglichkeit mehrere Lesezeichen zu markieren um alle gleichzeitig zu löschen. Jedes einzeln entfernen und auch noch jedesmal zu bestätigen frisst nur unnötig Zeit.

- by PERCE-NEIGE, a year agoRated 3 out of 5Good to detect broken links, and duplicates, but useless for organizing bookmarks. I didn't have any problem with the bookmarks analysis (almost 300 bookmarks checked quickly).

- by Vlad, 2 years agoRated 3 out of 5Дубликаты находит, сломанные закладки ищет плохо, много ошибок. Полностью доверять этому расширению не стоит

- by Firefox user 14306928, 2 years agoRated 3 out of 5It's a decent tool and does a good job of finding dupes! But there're no mass commands or buttons to deal with the dupes in one shot but rather you have to sit there and manually click on every dupe checkbox to take action.
The Find Broken URLs is a good feature but many websites like linkedin, facebook that do not allow webscrapers, see it as a threat, causing Bookmarks Organizer to generate a false positive report that the bookmark is broken or dead. The average person using this add-on needs to see friendlier http errors such as "the target web url does not allow remote checking!" as opposed to http 404! - by buba, 2 years agoRated 3 out of 5
- by Jamc, 2 years agoRated 3 out of 5Fool proof duplicate and dead bookmark organizer ... with a huge BUT ... you have to confirm manually every single change to the corrections (redirect, delete, whitelist) ... and since its visual, you can't select the 'ok' by pressing space or arrows, ..... and this can quickly become very very annoying.
Please add an option to disable the confirmation box. thank you. - by Firefox user 12812696, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5Nice sleek GUI, but reports too many false positives for broken links. Should be restricted to 404 responses only, or at least provide it as an option. The deduplicator function works, but the GUI provides no way to group-select detected items. Users with perhaps fifty or more duplicate URLs should expect to click "delete" for an unreasonable amount of time. I had over 400, so it was unfortunately an instant uninstall for me. If the developer fleshes out the options a LITTLE more, I may be back.
- by Firefox user 15136068, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5Mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Funktionen bin ganz zufrieden. Nur die Bezeichnung als "Organizer" finde ich stark übertrieben.

posted 3 years agoEine schlechte Bewertung, weil dir der Name nicht gefällt? Na danke... - by Firefox user 14419315, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5Would be even better if there was options to select multiple duplicate webpages. To help save you time manually deleting them all.
- by wildbilltx, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5
- by JustBoris, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5Very useful, but could be more useful (to me). Actually quite cumbersome to use.
- Doesn't test for duplicate tags. Misspellings and the like mean I have duplicate tags.
- blacklisted locations for the folders or default bookmark to delete. Many of my duplicated bookmarks are in the root folder; I'm really not sure how they got there (so it would be the default folder to delete the delete the duplicate). I use tags and not folders for searching.
- whitelisted folders which should not count - I have an addon called "time capsule" which uses bookmarks to remind me that pages exist periodically. Its bookmarks are not duplicates per se.
- The preferences are not a button on the main page.
- I assume you've never actually used your program on a normal user's setup or have OCD. After about fifty deletions one-by-one, even after turning off the confirmations, it gets old. I have less than one percent duplicates but it's too slow to actually use your addon. - by Fear Ialtóg, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5It's OK. It finds the errant book marks but all that that can be done is delete them manually one by one. Life's too short ;)
- by RiCK, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5It works this time since the update to 2.0.1
It could still use some additional features.
+Option to show only broken bookmarks, and not redirects.
+Option to show only redirects.
+Make it possible to remove folders, typically if the bookmark was the only one inside the folder and it was deleted, should be able to delete the folder too, without going to the Firefox Bookmarks view.
It's a great improvement over the older version I tried, keep up the good work.
reply: The checkboxes only appear if you are at the very top of the list. It would be better if you could make that part not scroll off the screen, as another layer or frame over the main frame.Developer response

It's already there. Please see the checkboxes on the results page. ;-)

It's a good suggestion, I will consider this for a future feature update.

Thank you! :) - by ryufeliz-1364607282.04, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5Repara los marcadores huerfanos, duplicados y rotos, siento que le falta más cosas como poder organizar los marcadores en carpetas o modificarlos de alguna forma, pero van por buen camino

posted 4 years agoThank you for your feedback! It would be great if you could open issues in GitHub for every suggestion you have. Thank you for your help! - by Flaschenpost Sorter, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5Ja das stimmt.
Also das Entfernen von Duplikaten sollte automatisch gehen, d.h. man sollte eine Regel angeben können, nach der nur noch eines der Duplikate beibehalten wird (z.B. nach Datum, nach Abfolge gefunden, Verzeichnistiefe oder so)
Ich habe ca. 9000 Lesezeichen, von denen einige Duplikate sind (~200). Diese einzeln zu suchen und dann auch alle mittels eigenem Klick zu entfernen ist sehr mühsam.Developer response

Ich werde an diesem Wochenende Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 veröffentlichen. Funktional ändert sich dadurch nichts, aber unter der Haube hat sich dafür umso mehr getan.
Nach Veröffentlichung von Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 werde ich schauen, welche funktionalen Verbesserungen in das nächste Update kommen. Vielleicht ja sogar dieser Vorschlag. Geplant ist diese Verbesserung in jedem Fall. Nur die Reihenfolge, in welcher die geplanten Verbesserungen kommen werden, ist noch nicht sicher, deswegen will ich noch nichts versprechen.
In jedem Fall wird es nicht wieder acht Monate bis zum nächsten Update dauern, weil die technische Grundlage nun eine bessere ist. ;-) - by Firefox user 13173126, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5
- by Firefox user 12916690, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5seems OK but it didn't find my "unsorted bookmarks" which number in the thousands. I'm going to remove it and try it again in acouple of months.
- by Firefox user 13268649, 4 years agoRated 3 out of 5I didn't work for me. The broken link search never completes, it stalls at the last bookmark and doesn't produce a list of results. I wrote to the developer and he answered, saying he's working on a fix.
- by Firefox user 13472474, 5 years agoRated 3 out of 5The duplicate option freezes and doesn't work well
- by Firefox user 12137179, 5 years agoRated 3 out of 5Its really great and has the potential to solve my problem, however is is quite difficult to use when you have a massive amount of bookmarks (1000+). For example, when looking at all the broken bookmarks i wish there was a way to collapse folders or only scan specific folders for errors. The biggest thing is that I wash there was a select all box, or boxes next to all the bookmarks so you could select multiple bookmarks so you can fix a bunch all at once instead of selecting to fix the url of each bookmark 1 at a time. (for whatever reason a bunch of the bookmarks have changed from http to https so firefox doesn't recognize them any more). Also the developer seems to be telling everyone not to leave reviews for recommendations and instead to just leave those on his website. But I would prefer not to do that because then I would have to make a whole new account for that site. Sorry.

That's not true at all.
