av Dan Harkless, 7 år sidenThank you!! The wrongheaded change to the longstanding (back to the original Netscape versions) behavior of defaulting bookmarks to the Bookmarks menu has been driving me nuts, but sure enough, the bugs I found about this were marked WONTFIX/INVALID. Since the crappy WebExtension framework normally doesn't allow fixing of browser UI issues the way the classic framework did, I figured it wouldn't even be possible for someone to fix this with an add-on, so I was very pleasantly surprised to discover Default Bookmark Folder, and to find that it works great to revert this latest Mozilla UI regression.
I also love that this add-on restores sanity to the new bookmark confirmation dialogue, where the buttons are now back to the original "Done" and "Cancel". The change in Firefox to say "Page Bookmarked" in the confirmation dialogue, with options of "Done" and "Remove Bookmark" flew in the face of decades upon decades of GUI convention, and never ceased to irritate me. Strangely, though, in Tor Browser this UI fix doesn't appear to work (everything else appears to).
Aside from that Tor Browser quirk, my only negative feedback is that the text in the add-on description "This feature only affect [sic — should be 'affects'] bookmarks added through the built-in Firefox bookmark icon or shortcut (Ctrl+D), or through the context menu" is incorrect, as is the corresponding text on the add-on's options page. I was quite bummed to read that this add-on wouldn't work with the way I've always bookmarked things, using the "Bookmark This Page" command in the Bookmarks menu (yes, modern Firefox's irritating default hiding of the menubar can still be reversed by right-clicking in the empty space of the tab bar and checkmarking "Menu Bar"). However, I'm happy to report that Default Bookmark Folder applies to bookmarks created the old-fashioned way as well. Hopefully you can fix that wording.

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Cyberknight, 2 år sidenVery useful extension. Remembering last folder for saving is very handy. The unrelated option to save new bookmarks at the top of the folder is also extremely useful. So, it turns out that the main purpose of this extension, to set a default folder for saving bookmarks, didn't glow as much as the side options (to me, at least...) Well, I'm not complaining, it's an essential extension, all those options should be incorporated to Firefox base code!

- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av RainbowSloth98, 2 år sidenSome of the features don't fully work. Mainly using the quick bookmark option, but found that the shortcuts overlap those of Dark Reader (which is honestly more on them)

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av atriptothemoon, 2 år sidenI'd love it if you could add this option : change the default behaviour when dragging and dropping a bookmark into a bookmark folder that the bookmark is added to the top not the bottom of the folder. Exactly as you can for the chosen default folder for quickbookmarking. thx for such a useful add on for those of us bookmark obsessed peeps. krgds Rob

- Vurdert til 1 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 10911376, 2 år sidenI originally installed this to fix the default bookmarking behavior always trying to save to an unwanted "other bookmarks" folder.
It worked for a while, but after version 2.13 a breaking change was made that still wasn't reverted YEARS later, with the developer focusing on completely different features that really should have been a different add-on. This also meant I could not use automatic updates for my addons!
At some point, the default behavior changed and now remembers the last several locations a bookmark was saved and defaults to the last used location on its own, making even the ancient 2.1.3 version obsolete for my use case.
