For a bookmark I just added, I get an age of "-1 hours". I'm in UTC+1:

Some functionality of the popup is a bit hidden by using prefixes or specific options.
Maybe adding a "tipps" / "usage" in addition to the GitHub help link would be helpful?

I've been udpated to v1.8.5.

I have thought the ColorStripe and BookmarkColor (I mean BookmarkFOLDER color) will keep the same color, but it only changes the stripe color.

Could you please offer options to set following colors seperately, too?

• Bookmark Folder Color
• Highlight SearchWords Color

Thank you so much!

Hey, thanks, this is really good.

I'm on a Mac and was trying Shift + Control + . but nothing is triggered. How can I change the shortcut, looked at the documentation but could not find a reference for this settings. Thanks!

Nevermind, the issue was that on the Mac it's triggered by Command + Shift + Period which was already in use by 1Password, I change the 1Password shorcut and now your shortcut works - sweet!

It's very hard to find the extension via search engines or in the extension stores. Have you thought about giving it a unique name which can be searched for?

1. I don't have any clue where to change the colors & thickness of indicators, can we change this?

2. Is it possible to show full url when mouse over the result? Otherwise, is it possible to change width of the popup window?

Thank you so much for the great extension!

Overall, the precise search is better supported and works better than the fuzzy search.

-> PR #35

If the fuzzy search is combined with the precise search and only adds fuzzy results additinally, we could combine the benefits from both search approaches. Unfortunately, it would also combine the indexing times and search performance of both approaches.

This could be a third mode combined or the existing fuzzy mode is just enhanced.

Hi maintainer:

For recent 1.8.5 release checking out on my usage side, all of fuzzy search method (i.e. any search mode unless precise) thru CJK (i.e. chinese, japan and korean) prefix gives me an error message of:

Error Message:  undefined

without any candidates listed anymore.

I've spent some time to investigate the problem by checking out recently git commits for locating the final no-problem commit, it is 98ee21e. And I've compared the latest commit upates content again with that no-problem commit to found that the only break changes between is the deps updates via commit 86ee9c6.

In my test, when I revert the deps updates via commit 86ee9c6 based on latest commit (i.e. the main branch), the problem is gone.

I've not test which dep's updating caused this issue, hope for founding and helping me how to fix this problem.

Thanks.

I really like your plugin, it's exactly what I've been looking for to replace a feature in the Sidekick browser. However, I hope that your plugin can have a clearer and more user-friendly interface like theirs. Right now, it's difficult for me to distinguish between bookmarks and browsing history.

This looks to be similar to issue #39 , but in a different browser. I'm using Arc Browser 1.33.0 on MacOS 14.4

The rest of the extension works fine, and I know at some point in the past, the "Options" page opened properly, even in Arc.

Recently though, when clicking Options or Tips from the footer, the click appears to be ignored in all contexts.

In normal Chrome v119.0.6045.199 on the same machine, the extension works exactly as expected without any issues.

Trying to follow the advise in the other issue, I cloned this repo, npm install and npm run build, and then "Load unpacked" the extension directly in to Arc, but I still don't know how to get to any console output specific to the extension (v1.9.5).

If you can advise me on how to collect logs or console output for you, I'm happy to do so.

Other minor differences from #39 :

the popup freezes in the sense that I can no longer click any of the other links

This is not my experience.

found a workaround by opening and closing the extension window twice, which then allowed options tab to display.

This also, is not my experience. I cannot get the Options page to display in Arc in any scenario.

Thanks for the extension. I was trying to configure vim key based navigation(Ctrl+N for Down Ctrl+P for Up) but couldn't. Is something like this already possible?

The current way how to adjust the options is not very user friendly.

Building a UI around them is something I'd like to avoid since there are a lot of options and I would like to keep this simple.

Ideas

• Simplify the options structure to be flat (currently there are nested objects)
• Automatically migrate from old options structure to new structure, so the users do not have to adjust it manually
• Document the options in Markdown (as a table?) instead of comments in the original code.

Can we insert a separator line between Bookmarks and History? I think the stipe color doesn't make obvious division. Thanks!

I use ctrl+tab in Firefox a lot to switch between my recent tabs. Unfortunately Firefox only displays the last 6 tabs. I'd like to have a feature to display the recently used tabs in the list when no search input is given.
What do you think of the idea? I can try to implement this and submit a PR, I'm a JS n00b, though, so I'd need some time to get comfortable with the code base.

Hi,
Thanks very much for your add-on, clearly on the top list of my favourite ones.
Searching is perfect with this addon, what would be great would be to improve storing bookmarks with the same powerful search tool.
In the bookmark folder tree, it can be quite long to choose the right folder, opening each folder one after the other to get to the final leaf folder. It would be great to be able to make a bookmark folder search ( maybe f keyword ), and then just save current tab in it or create new bookmark folder in that folder and be able to finally save current tab in that newly created bookmark folder.
You made a great job !!

Hi,

One of the best extension so far I use in Firefox.

There is a feature in the command palette from Vivaldi that would be nice to add in your extension.

It would need to add a property for search engine such as

  - name: Google
    urlPrefix: https://www.google.com/search?q=
    alias: g

When you want to run a search for a term in google you would type g this my search in google and press enter. The search is run in a new tab. Prefix should be detected as soon as you follow them by a space. Then the first result in the list would the name of the search engine stating that the following term will be searched with it. The next items in the list would still be the usual search results from the whole input.

An alias can be one letter to a much long word.

I’ve used this workflow for years and I assure this fast and effective.

With the change to use uFuzzy as fuzzy search it behaves much more close to precise search anyway.

I'm not sure whether keeping the hybrid search is worth it. I'll likely remove it, except anyone has objections and uses it with great benefit.

I only tested in Firefox. It might be the same in Chrome.

Edit : extensions are limited by Firefox, so they can not open some privileged URLs, like those starting with "about:" or "file:" ("about:blank" are allowed). So there is nothing you can do unfortunately.

When opening either by shortcut or click, the options don't display. I have tried reinstalling and refreshing Firefox profile.

When opening your addon and clicking on the "Options" or "Tips" link in the popup's footer, then nothing happens. Also, the popup freezes in the sense that I can no longer click any of the other links, though it still can be closed by clicking outside.

I'm using version 1.5 of your addon on Firefox 98.0b5, that is the Firefox Developer Edition.

Hey thanks for the extension, looking really good!

I feel like adding the site icon (maybe as an option) would help a lot to see at a glance the source of a search result.
Basically, I consider more relevant a reddit icon at the left than the whole reddit url (I would keep it to see the matching substring etc).

Is it for a technical reason? I just like bookmarks with icons :)

Another comment (I didnt want to open multiple issues, but feel free to do so). Could the wheel click open tabs in the background directly without having to ctrl+click? It would be consistent with the rest of chrome.

Cheers

When pressing the add-on button it writes at the bottom of the popup window "Error: An unexpected error occurred"

Hi there,

Your extension looks great, and I am looking forward to using it, however, I'm seeing an error.

When I bring up the search window and start to type something, I get the following error messages (with search mode on 'Precise'):

Error Message: searchPerformance[0] is undefined

That's with typing one character in the search box. If I type more characters I get more of those same errors repeated.

No actual search results appear.

I am using LibreWolf (v109.0.1, which is a Firefox-based browser), along with the uBlock Origin extension enabled (and also the 'Tab Stash' extension), so maybe that has something to do with it? Or perhaps I've changed some other setting in the browser and I've messed something up?

Anyway, just curious if there's something I can change or adjust to get your extension working.
Thanks.

imo the current fuzzy search is useless because it seems (in my experience) to be so 'fuzzy' as to search for individual LETTERS.

imo, a useful proper 'fuzzy' search for match for each of the individual words: not the whole string. the issue here would be to be an OR or an AND match. i could see that BOTH would be useful.

my advice is to have comma delimiters if you want an OR search of each word, and + delimiters if you want an AND search for each word (but individually), and no separators if you want to match the whole string. that works logically with those delimiters.

Firefox natively supports its own bookmarks tags. My own bookmarks are already tagged. It would be great if extensions could read and collect them but I have no idea if API allows this.

I found this https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1225916

Hello!

It seems every extension will empty the search result after closing the popup windows. I have a suggestion as in bellow image. I wonder if we can get such a function. Thanks!

As the title says, how can we search only inside a specific bookmark folder?

Also, typing inside the search box is quite slow. It appears as if the browser hangs every time I start typing inside the search box.

I think it is a very useful add-on. However, This add-on seems to be limited to single-byte characters.

1. Is it possible to support multiple languages?
   

2. It would be useful to be able to open a new page without closing the search results with a middle click.
   Thanks!

ATM, the tab search focuses only to current window.
Please add option to search among all open windows.

Are there any plans for making this available for Brave?

This extension can currently only search the browser's saved history. Once we clear the history, it will no longer be searchable. Have you considered enabling the extension to search through past browsing history, similar to the Falcon extension? However, it would not be necessary to index the entire text, only the web page titles, and it would be limited to a certain time frame, such as history from the past 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 365 days, etc. It would also automatically delete history records from before this time period.

Thank you!

Hi,

I have been looking for an extension that let me search in bookmarks and tabs, and yours is the perfect extension 👌🏽, thanks a lot.

I noticed that, If I have more than 1 window open, the current tab (in my active window where the extension was activated) is not changing if I press Shift + Enter. Instead, the active tab from the other window (maybe some window in the background) is changed.

I think maybe adding the option currentWindow: true to query tabs in file searchView.js make the trick.

Regards.

If a link title is not given correctly, it could be that a complete URL with long size is shown as title. That can take up almost all of the popup size for one link alone. Better would be to set a max height for the title. I think the URL length is already limited and uses ellipsis.
