All tags are removed from a bookmark, if I choose to repair a redirect automatically or manually edit the bookmark through the Bookmarks Organizer interface.

Tested with Firefox 54.

There is already an option to repair all redirects. A new option could be introduced to only repair http to https conversions.

All bookmarks I had from this sites http://en.rocketnews24.com/ http://www.sankakucomplex.com/ (NSFW) that were not the homepage appeared as broken even though there was no problem with them.

Overall, the extension works well. Thank you!

However, the extension reports some URLs as unavailable (red dot) when they are not. It seems to be random. There are not particular URLs it happens with. Running the extension immediately again (looking for broken bookmarks) will find different bookmarks as broken, and will not find previously reported broken bookmarks.

My workaround is to click on each reported broken bookmark to see if it is actually broken. Sometimes they are... sometimes they are not.

I'm sure also users, who do not speak German would like to use your add-on and/or contribute to it. Thus everything on GitHub should be in English: Readme, commit messages, etc.

Sören,

Hello! I've discovered your wonderful add-on thanks to this post on gHacks. I'd like to ask you to make this add-on compatible with the Pale Moon web browser, please.

Thanks in advance for reading! 👍

Fx Version: 56.0b3 (64-bit)

Repro:

1. install bookmark organizer and this one https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pagesaver/
2. Open bookmark organizer UI

What happened: it never finishes loading the bookmarks. Errors in browser console:

Attempt to create privileged extension parent from incorrect child process  ExtensionParent.jsm:646
	createProxyContext resource://gre/modules/ExtensionParent.jsm:646:15
	receiveMessage resource://gre/modules/ExtensionParent.jsm:598:11
Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist.  undefined

This add-on is not the only one have this problem. So far I found a batch of them, such as xthunder etc.

I suspect all the non-e10s compatible legacy addons will cause this.

Also this is a regression, I always have those conflict addons installed, but bookmark organizers only stops to work recently.

Make use of optional permissions and don't ask for all permissions on install. It will require Firefox 55, so it cannot be implemented before 2017-08-08.

In Firefox 57 beta(already release),Duplicate check Bookmarks doesn't end.
In JA Location.

Firefox57 BetaはほとんどReleaseですが、Duplicate Checkが終わりません。日本語環境です。

Hi there,

I use Bookmarks Organizer 1.3.0, on Firefox 54.0 (64 bits), and Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits. I have 2086 bookmarks to manage (ok it's a lot, that's why I need to clear them !).

When I run BO for the first time, I have this result :

• total : 2086
• checked : 2085
• warning : ~200
• errors : ~100 (don't remember the exacts numbers)

Then, I wait... wait... wait, more than 2 hours, and I have never a report of all the bookmarks. It seems freezed.
So I ran again the ckeck. There, it was blocked after 7 bookmarks checked.
I restart Firefox, and after multiple tests, I have never seen a complete report. A every test, it blocked during the analysis, and the screen stays with the 3 bubbles fading in and out.

I don't know if there is a log file to give to you. At the moment, after more than 20 tests, I cannot have a report of my bookmarks, every time it freezes and never give me the hand again ("check bookmarks" button is always disabled after that).

What can I do to find a solution ? How to tell you how to reproduce this ?

Thanks.

from user feedback:

"The fox image on the right in the add-on page is very cute, but the white fur of the fox is too similar to the page background. I couldn't tell what the image was until I right click > View Image'd it. Maybe place it in a circular background for better contrast? This would also help give it the appearance of a button and better convey to users that it is click-able."

Sometimes some web site (also after sync) appear without favicon, will be great have this feature for a complete and perfect bookmarks organizer.
Thanks.

Investigate if it's possible and a good idea to implement options for offset and limit. For example: check 200 bookmarks, starting from bookmark 420.

sorry

When trying to delete a bookmark, if the confirmation dialogue includes "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" and you tick that option, "delete" appears to stop working (i.e. clicking on "delete" has no effect) until you get the add-on to rescan all your bookmarks.

http://www.example.com/#hash should redirect to https://www.example.com/#hash and not to https://www.example.com/.

from user feedback:

"The search bar that shows up upon completing a scan says 'Name or URL...' It is not immediately obvious that the text typed into this would filter the results shown below. Maybe something like 'Type name or address to filter results' is better?"

The setting for the debug mode no longer works.

有的書籤沒有路徑（some bookmarks no path）

我找可以整理出重複書籤的應用程式已有段時間了，感謝你開發此附加元件！

There is already an option to find bookmarks without name. It should be expanded to find folders without name, too.

from user feedback:

"If the webextensions API allows for this, offer to create backups, or otherwise encourage the user to create them on their own before they use the add-on to make changes. This could help users from shooting themselves in the foot"

A whitelist should be added to exclude bookmarks from future scans.

I could not get this to work so I created a clean profile where bookmarks-organizer was only extension installed and it worked. I have the following extensions installed
Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon
Disconnect
Greasemonkey
LastPass
NoScript
Bookmarks Organizer

I did notice that the window in which this add on executes also has the NoScript red circle around it but does not give the option to unblock any script that could be running

add auto or semi-auto bulk actions to merge, join, diff bookmarks from duplicates considering "folder" and "tags" (#42 #47) fields

For example from bookmark duplicates checker (duplicate criteria: by.url)

ocurrence1: title, url, tag1, folder1
ocurrence2: title, url, tag2, folder2
... etc

possible conflicts

title and url => must be unique (no conflict)
(ignore this 1* ) tag1 & tag2 => resolve ocurrence merged: title, url, tag1, tag2
(1*edit: Firefox considers url.tagged as unique yet, ignore this)
folder1 & folder2 => override (one or another) or convert "folder to tags" (via an folder.2.tags function)

from user feedback:

"Every time I clicked edit for a bookmark and then clicked Save, the Keefox popup showed up and tried to 'save the login.' Could this be fixed on your end or is it an issue with Keefox?"

While scanning all bookmarks, it would be great if you could replace outdated bookmark page titles with the newest page title. So, basically the name or the heading for each bookmark. At the moment, only the URL is updated and you may still have the outdated bookmark page title.

There's an app that does it, but only one tab at a time. It would be great if this extension could be combined with the features of the app below to scan all bookmark headings in one go.

from user feedback:

"Sadly I haven't really been able to get much use from the add-on, as the broken bookmark checker always gets stuck on the last bookmark. From a glance at the console output it's possible that it could be due to a basic auth prompt, but I'm not sure and would happily help to find out."

redirects to

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/de.sci.electronics/Itt4SyGYbfY

But the Bookmarks Organizer wants to change the url to

https://groups.google.com/forum/

The reason is that the fragment is omitted in the redirected response object of the fetch API. There is no way around this so I have to implement a workaround for Google Groups and hope there are no other websites which need that.

add on hangs when processing duplicates

A new check should be added to find folders without bookmarks.

Beautiful extension. Thank you.

Only trouble is that it seems to hang on the last bookmark.

I seem to recall that this was previously reported, but I'm not seeing the issue report here.

Maybe they were requested too fast or the redirects were not recognized, but many – properly working – bookmarks were marked as non-existent (red) in my test.

Make HEAD requests instead of GET requests for better performance. But be aware: Not every website allows HEAD requests so the second request has to be a GET request. And: Microsoft does send a wrong HTTP status code (Not Found instead of Method not Allowed) so we need to handle this.

For example:

I aimed to click on the red alert.

Enhancement request

Please, can you make the red alert a button, that lists any error when clicked?

Thanks

I wanted to request the ability to easily select multiple bookmarks listed to exclude. For example clicking on a folder will give you the option to delete them or exclude them temporary or permanently. Right clicking on a bookmark or clicking on a checkbox or something like that will give you the options to exclude that domain permanently or temporarily or delete all the bookmarks from that domain (that are listed as broken or that need redirect).

The logo is not gread on dark themes.

This problem occurs in FF 52.2.1, running on Windows 7 SP1 (64-bit), installed on a Dell XPS410, with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB RAM.

As soon as the program's icon is clicked, and a new tab opens, FF jumps to 55 - 60 % CPU usage, although it was sitting idle the moment before. This happens before any selection is made from the choices in "Start Here." The high CPU utilization continues as long as the tab remains open, I'm only able to stop it by closing the tab.

Although the three lights in the middle of the interface page light in sequence as though something was happening, no numbers appear on any of the labels at the top of the GUI window to indicate that any bookmarks are being checked.

Over the course of 15 minutes, FF memory usage rises from about 1 GB when opened with 462 tabs, to 2.58 GB.

I have a bookmark to https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/uou6z/update_i_was_requested_to_compile_all_of_the/ in my other bookmarks.

When I check for broken bookmarks, this bookmark is listed as being broken. Well, what I assume as being broken, as it has a red dot next to it.

from user feedback:

"Once the results of a scan for 'missing bookmark names' show up, scroll down a bit so that the header changed from class default to compact. This compact mode doesn't feel compact enough. For example, a resolution of 1366x768 gives me a content area of ~630px on Firefox. But even with the header in .compact mode, I'm left with the results displaying within a height of ~400px. So (230/630)*100=36% of the content area is being spent in showing the header / footer and that action bar with the drop down and the 'check bookmarks' button. Maybe make the action bar and footer a little smaller, and maybe have (at least the compact mode of) the header change the list ' Number of bookmarks', 'Checked', 'Errors' etc. into a horizontal one instead of a vertical one to save vertical space. There is already a lot of empty space in the compact mode of the header between the star on the left and this list on the right."

While all broken links can be deleted at once, the duplicate finder has no bulk action.
I could imagine to prefer the bookmarks in one folder over the other (e.g. if there are duplicates keep the ones in "toolbar" and drop the ones in "my old bookmarks").
In addition one could want to always keep the newer ones and drop the older bookmarks.

I was suprised how many of my bookmarks have a "warning" when I check whether they are still available. I noticed most of the redirect to the very same page just appending the s to http.
In order to see relevant warnings, I would like to be able to filter those redirects.
It would also be nice if one could click "warning" or "error" and then omit findings from the other category.

Thanks

It should be possible to repair or to delete more than one bookmark at once.

It's already possible to delete or to repair either a single bookmark or all broken bookmarks. It should be possible to apply these operations to a folder.

Of course, with 0 bookmarks there is no bookmark which can be broken and it does not make much sense to run the add-on. But still, the add-on should not get stuck in a broken state.

Your extension is perfect for adding HTTPS checking.

By HTTPS checking, I mean checking each bookmark to see if an SSL/TLS page is available.

This will be very valuable.

The only challenge will be to see if the page loads properly with HTTPS. Some sites, when switching to HTTPS from HTTP, are missing images, CSS, or other content. I can provide a couple examples if desired.

When looking for bookmarks without a name:

Firefox 53.0.2

Please add tags support for this WebExtension on Firefox (tags is a exclusive Firefox Places feature but it is supported by Pinboard or Delicious and clones SemanticScuttle or Shaarli)

*this solves this issue too (#47)

from user feedback:

"A way to disable confirmation (super annoying when you have hundreds of bookmarks to correct)"

Hi , noice addon ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Works fine if I completely disable noscript but i think it could use some customizable advanced settings
(timeout,max requests etc.) if possible
2 more suggestions:

• Scan only specific folder/s
• (batch) replace a string(or frist x no of characters) in the URL for maybe preselected bookmarks , for example "http://www.somesite.com/..." to "https://ww1.somesite.com/..."

Not sure about the last one but would be a nice feature
Thanks , this helped me find about 1k problem bookmarks

I've got 2 bookmarks that are always detected as broken, although the URLs are accessible.
This problem first occurred after the update to Bookmark Organizer 1.3.0.
