Hello Stan, yes this is one of the benefits of BSP2 to go past FF corruptions in the native bookmarks DB when they appear / already exist.

A careful way to proceed, but which loses tags if you have any (until FF allows us to copy tags :-( ) is typically:
- Go in BSP2 to a folder which is not showing anymore in the native sidebar
- Copy it (right click and click "Copy")
- Go to another place which is not corrupt
- Right click there and click "Paste before" or "Paste into" if a folder
- Go to the native sidebar, and verify the copied folder is there
- When all is good (can take some time when folders are big), you can delete the old "lost" folder in BSP2

A bolder way to proceed, but which should keep the tags, is typically:
- Go in BSP2 to a folder which is not showing anymore in the native sidebar
- Cut it (right click and click "Cut") - you are safe so far, as Cut does not remove anything, it just says that a future paste will be a move instead of a copy
- Go to another place which is not corrupt
- Right click there and click "Paste before" or "Paste into" if a folder - this step is safe in fact, except when FF crashes or the corruption is too strong .. should be very rare though
- Go to the native sidebar, and verify the moved folder is there

Hope this helps. If any problem, let me know on https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues

Note that FF corrupts its bookmark DB on its own .. BSP2 does not play a role in that.
This is why there is a backup function of bookmarks in FF (saved everyday automatically by FF, you can find the backups in one of the menus of the Bookmarks Library).

Hello, yes we would all love to, but no app can do that for now, this is not provided by Firefox :-(
If you can vote on Bugzilla to get this promoted, please do so .. it is P3 right now, and 4 years old -> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1225916

Yes, this is a todo https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues/29 .. It will come, but not sure when yet :-)

Hello @wtfs, now multiple bookmarks selection is possible, since version 2.0.103 :-) !

Hello John Corliss, correct, when installing the add-on, it retrieves once each favicon directly on their page and caches them. This is because FF does not give access to its own DB of favicons :-(
Cf. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1315616

You can let it go and then it stops when all favicons are fetched (duration of the phase will obviously depend on the number of bookmark items you have), or as you did you stop fetching and then miss the little favicons. This will get better when FF fixes the above bug / adds the function.

Thank you, aaFn.

Hello, welcome, and happy this is meeting your need :-)
Your frustration was exactly what happened to me also with FF 57 / Quantum, and which motivated me to take over this sequel, since Alice0775 apparently stopped doing anything on it https://github.com/alice0775/userChrome.js/issues/37#issuecomment-363050019
Cheers, aaFn.

Hello, the search function is usually very fast. Could you open an issue on https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues to investigate together ?

On multi-selection, yes this is in the todo list https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues/29
that will come :-)

Hello GNU/Val, thank you for the review.

Indeed, now the version is available by hovering on the magnifying glass icon, and also on the toolbar icon, so it is superflouous in the sidebar title, your comment is good. I will remove it in 2.0.65 to make that shorter.

Internationalization is tracked through an issue on GitHub -> https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues/62
I didn't start for now, still acting on functions.

Thank you, aaFn.

------------- Update ---------------
The version is removed from the extension name on the sidebar, as of 2.0.65. Thanks, aaFn.

Hello Registrierter Benutzer, ok, can you open an issue on https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues so that we track this down ?

I also see that https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx (Speravir ?) suggested some customizations specific to BSP2. If you can bring him in, we could also see how to integrate better maybe ?

Cheers, aaFn.

Hello jon482, this add-on searches for any bookmark item, be they folders or bookmarks.
For folders, this is using their title, which is what I believe you call their name.
For bookmarks, this is using their title or their url, whichever matches.
So it does what you want .. or let me know what I am missing.

If there is a feature you would like to see added, please ask here -> https://github.com/aaFn/Bookmark-search-plus-2/issues

Thank you, aaFn.
