- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 13339547, 2 moannen lynI love this add-on, I have more than 5000 bookmarks and it really helps! But I've had one problem since the beginning: in the sidebar, you can display the bookmarks as FF bookmarks or as Bookmarksearch Bookmarks. When I delete bookmarks, they often disappear from the FF display but are still there in the Bookmarksearch display. They can no longer be deleted with a right-click. Restarting everything is futile. I have FF 115.27.0esr.
Is it possible to have your history automatically deleted when you close Firefox? You can set the storage period to a minimum of one day.

2 moannen lyn pleatstHello, when the problem happens, you can go to the BSP2 options and:
- either press the "Reload all bookmarks from FF now" button to force re-synchronization
- or enable the following option "Revert to old behavior of loading full bookmark tree from Firefox API at each restart", which will force that reload each time (but will slow down the add-on start).
This should help, else let me know. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 19166001, 4 moannen lyn
- Wurdearring: 3 fan 5troch sjapartments, 5 moannen lynThe extension works as expected. But when using Edge to import my Firefox bookmarks into Edge, many bookmarks do not get imported. Could this be because I used "Bookmarks search Plus 2" my Firefox bookmarks into multiple folder levels?

5 moannen lyn pleatstHello sjapartments, no, the bookmarks created through BSP2 are fully standard, they are created using the Firefox API, so they are created by Firefox itself, and they do not differ from when they are created from the native bookmark sidebar.
There must be something else.
Maybe Edge has a bug in importing bookmarks from Firefox ? Cf. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/unable-to-import-bookmarks-favorites-from-firefox/539ce5d5-1e8a-4ea6-bc92-a6808de6a19d, you do not seem to be alone having problems - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 18954770, 7 moannen lynBrilliant. This is what Firefox built-in bookmark management should provide, but Firefox deleted that good functionality from the codebase about 15 years ago and have never seen the need for bookmark management since. This developer has done an excellent job in fulfilling a need.

My access to GitHub doesn’t work, hope you don’t mind my asking here:
(FireFox on Macbook)
• There is a delay of about 1 second when drag-n-dropping a link into a folder.
• Also, after “New Folder”, the first attempt at d&d’ing an existing Bookmark into it always fails and sometimes(?) calls up the link in the active tab.
• On “Bookmark Tab(s) Here”, when saving a bookmark into a new folder (ctrl-right click), the folder name is limited to 30 characters, whereas “New folder…” does not have this limit. For now, the workaround is to use the “Properties” submenu to change to a longer name. You told me (quite:) a while ago it would be easy to discard that limit, as I think you did for “New Folder…”. Could you please increase/discard this limit too?Antwurd ûntwikkeler
ien jier lyn pleatstHello @vlad, indeed it would be easier to continue the conversation on https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues, but let's see how far we can go here.
First, I do not have a Macbook, so I rely on a virtual MacOS in a VM, that might introduce differences.
Second, my MacOS VM is on Monterey 12.2.1, that might also be a difference with you.
Anyway, based on FF 129.0.1, and on BSP2 v2.0.129, I am not able to reproduce any of the 3 symptoms you mention:
- d&d of links or tabs or existing bookmarks in a folder, new or existing, is immediate, and no error on my side
- the second symptom makes me think of a regression I fixed in 2.0.129, can you make sure that you have the latest BSP2 version ?
- on the third, I must say I am puzzled .. the right click menu [not Ctrl-right click] has indeed "Bookmark Tab Here" [without the "(s)" part on "Tab", only one tab, the current one], but it does not ask for a folder name, it does not create one, and it has no limit to 30 characters on the folder name where the bookmark is created from the current tab, nor on the bookmark name itself. If you keep Ctrl pressed when clicking on the action, the properties menu opens on bookmark creation to ask you to modify the name, and here also, no 30 characters limit (and frankly, there was never such a limit in my code !).
So net is that I am not able to reproduce the problems, or maybe I need a litte more precision, sorry to be slow if so. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 13385186, ien jier lynThis is what Firefox's bookmark manager should've been. Love this addon
- Wurdearring: 2 fan 5troch daveyy foxx, ien jier lyn"This add-on needs to:
Read and modify bookmarks
Read and modify browser settings
Access browsing history
Access browser tabs
Access browsing history
Store unlimited amount of client-side data
Access your data for all websites"
I'd say that's a bit much to ask for Simply being a bookmak search toolAntwurd ûntwikkeler
ien jier lyn pleatstHello @davey foxx, the need for each permission is explained here, in detail for each:
https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/wiki/Permissions-and-Privacy-policy
In short, these are mostly due to shortcomings or limitations in Firefox, unfortunately
(a number of them are depending on bugzilla's to be corrected so that I can drop the need for the authorization). - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch RKN, ien jier lyn
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 15131334, ien jier lynexcellent tool. gave it 4 stars but it's 4.99. that missing 0.01 point is for the icon that i find a bit unaesthetic and doesn't compliment the usefulness of this tool. may i suggest you change it to a more minimalitic design that matches the mozilla icons? hope you will consider, would definetly bring it to a flawless 5 stars for me. thank you for making this great little tool.
Antwurd ûntwikkeler
ien jier lyn pleatstHello, thank you, any suggestion ? (if you can place that in https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues)
My skills on icon design are not the best :-)
The idea is to keep a reference / similarity to the FF bookmarks icon, with something showing a "plus", and easily distinguishable from the standard FF bookmarks icon. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Laura, 2 jierren lynThank you so much for making this, there's surprisingly little support for regex searching your bookmarks for some reason, which I would've thought a lot of people need/want to do. Handy little tool :)
Antwurd ûntwikkeler
2 jierren lyn pleatstWelcome, and indeed, regex is quite useful. However, not so many people know how to use it, so I guess this is only for a fraction of users :-)

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 16238091, 2 jierren lynTried to use it and all I got was "Wait background load" I cannot even uninstall it from Firefox! I get a gray box with a dot in the center of it on the Firefox Add-ons page.
Antwurd ûntwikkeler
2 jierren lyn pleatstHello, sorry for the problem, and strange that you cannot even uninstall it, that would suggest a Firefox problem maybe.
Would you mind opening an issue on https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues, with a screenshot of the Firefox Add-ons page, and also indicating to me which version of Firefox this is, on which OS ?
Also, could I ask you to go to the Options page of the add-on, activate the Traces option, and then would you agree applying this procedure https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/wiki#debugging-bsp2--reporting-errors and report me the errors or messages that you see ?
Thank you in advance, and again sorry for the inconvenience, aaFn. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Strømfeldt, 2 jierren lyn
