I have used this addon for 4-5 years without a hazzle. But this morning it stopped accepted my password... Luckily I make weekly backups of the mozilla folder so I still have access to my hidden links.

Its good but i wish i could just make a folder and be done with it

It does not seem to work. Firefox 119.0

Hey Danny Champ, you're a fool. Addons don't have access to your Mozilla Firefox profile. "Private Bookmarks" only puts your passwords locally on one device! )))

There may well be a private folder, hidden behind a password on my PC. However, on my linked phone and tablet, the sites are visible, WITH NO PASSWORD!! For anyone to see!!
I urge you not to use this addon

simply stopped working, how to recover?

my password stopped working and i lost everything

The shortcut to unlock the bookmarks doesn't work. I've checked in firefox and it's correctly assigned, it used to work but after a fresh install it's broken.

Private Bookmarks enables a special password-protected bookmark folder. Your private bookmarks are encrypted with your chosen password. This is not an online service, and you are in control of what data leaves your machine (if at all).

my bookmarks got deleted for some reason... I have not used my bookmarks for a long time. Now that i wanted to use them they are all gone. Thank you very much...

BACKUP YOUR BOOKMARKS! I installed this, moved bookmarks into the private bookmarks area, then locked it. Came back the next day and unlocked it only to find all the private bookmarks EMPTY!

I had a backup, but if I hadn't all my private bookmarks would have been lost!

I use Firefox sync, and I read the description before installing and using it too.

The github issue tracker is full of issues and bugs. My advice, avoid, look elsewhere.
