di Josiah O'Connel, 5 anni faOk this add-on is incredible and works extremely well once you know what you're doing and how to set it up. That being said, it was not the easiest set up because there was no tutorial or instructions on where the hidden folder would appear or how to move multiple bookmarks into that hidden folder. But I did a bit of snooping and figured it all out. Now it works seamlessly and I would recommend this to anyone who needs privacy from prying eyes or Big Brother. One question though, so if some one was to get on and delete the add-on what would happen to the bookmarks? I thought about it as a workaround if some one was trying to access your stuff without the password. Would the bookmarks then be revealed and hey could access all your things or would they all just disappear with the add-on?

pubblicato il 5 anni faThe tutorial is in the add on description (folder location, what you can do with it). To answer your question: if you did not export any backups then yes the bookmarks would be gone together with the add-on as far as I know. Even if by any chance Firefox did not delete the file containing them, it is still encrypted with your password. Thanks for your feedback!

- Valutata 1 su 5di Dan, un mese faDoesn't work with the latest firefox. No folder created. There is a purple star on the extensions tab but you can't even click on it.

- Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 14773089, 3 mesi faVery simple extension. Works well for me on Firefox 135.0 as of February 2025. It would be nice to be able to customize the location of the Private Bookmarks folder (mainly so the "Other Bookmarks" folder doesn't get involved), but that's super minor.

- Valutata 1 su 5di JohnyJohny, 8 mesi faexactly the same problem as many people here. The app is excellent until the password doesn't work and you lost all your bookmarks. For me, it's the second time and I quite.
It's mentionned that you have to make regulary backup but bookmarks are not enough critical to setup a professionnel backup process, we don't want to worry about backup. - It works until it doesn't. I found exactly the same as many other reviewers: this add-on has a lot of great features, and it works well... until it doesn't. The Private Bookmarks password fails to work after some time. Twice I used this add-on to save bookmarks... and twice, for no apparent reason, the password is no longer remembered by the extension, so I can't unlock these bookmarks. With that, the bookmarks are gone forever. This is a great concept that unfortunately fails at a critical point.
- It worked great for months until it didn't.
I'm not sure what broke it but possibly my MacOS upgrade to 14.6. Suddenly Firefox wouldn't respond to the Shift-Option-8 hotkey, which is where you enter your password.
I tried reinstalling the add-on, rebooting, etc. Unfortunately, it's evident that I also lost all those private bookmarks in the process, which weren't so much private but archived in Private Bookmarks so they wouldn't be accidentally deleted.
I filed a bug report with the developer last week but I haven't received an acknowledgement of it and the bug hasn't been assigned. - Valutata 1 su 5di Utente Firefox 13906799, un anno faThis stopped working after the latest FF update. Password does not unlock bookmarks. Broken and abandoned extension by the dev.

- Valutata 3 su 5di PeterCPH, un anno faI 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 by restoring the latest backup with a working password.
So I will recommend doing backups in case the password suddenly fails. - Valutata 5 su 5di Ooom-Chay, un anno fa
