- Rated 5 out of 5by Newrone, 6 years agoHow do I open it?! In "Details" it says "click the extension symbol (duplicate stars) or use the link in the options page" but that just opens "Details" again! And there is no "Options" option.
(Yes, this is a Firefox issue so I'm going 5* for now, in hope.)
Edit: OK so 8h later & I still haven't found the "ON" switch!
This is crazy!
1* then.
(Not "3 years ago" but 22 Oct 2021!)
Edit2: NOW I see the icon in the Menu bar & it works! Back to 5*. For now at least. (I KNEW it was Firefox!) - Rated 5 out of 5by Glassed Silver, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by FlopP, 6 years agoSaved me hours of sorting after the xmarks sync bug that duplicated countless bookmarks.
Thank you! - Rated 4 out of 5by Korwin, 6 years agoFirefox 67.0a1, Windows 10. Нельзя выделить сразу все найденные результаты, приходиться выделять по одному. Пустые папки находит, закладки с одинаковыми URL тоже.
Developer response
posted 6 years agoThe first claim seems to be incorrect:
There is a button to select all bookmarks. Also many other combinations of bookmarks can be selected by just pressing a single button.
If these buttons should not work, please report a bug. - Rated 4 out of 5by Wireball, 6 years agoBookmark Dupes removed over thirteen thousand* duplicate bookmarks in about ten minutes. The multi-select is awesome. Remove all but the newest, for example.
My only regret is that it doesn't *seem* to support merging the contents of folders with the same names. After deleting empty folders, I have two hundred folders remaining with various different assortments of bookmarks in them, but most of the folder names are duplicated over five times :)
*-(Some people might be wondering how I ended up with so many duplicates to begin with. Xmarks and to a lesser extent Sync had some problems merging bookmark sets with large numbers of changes between different computers. A few browser crashes while syncing didn't help. That led to huge amounts of bookmark and folder duplication.)Developer response
posted 6 years ago> merging the contents of folders with the same names
Merging/Removing duplicate bookmark *folders* is IMHO a rather different task than removing bookmarks.
(Actually, I consider already the option to "move" instead of removing the bookmarks a questionable feature.) It would require a completely different UI.
Currently, it is not implemented, and I have neither plans nor time to implement it (if somebody really wants to implement it, please contact me by pm or on github.)
Concerning the bug that the moving does copying instead of moving: I cannot reproduce it.
Technically, it uses this function https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/bookmarks/move and if this does not do the claimed thing, I would say it is a firefox bug (which should be reported to firefox), or perhaps you have some strange folder which is e.g. immediately re-filled by some other extension or something similar I cannot reproduce.
But it seems that this part was removed from your comment, so perhaps you could not reproduce either.
If you can, please report details about the bug on github (or send me a pm). - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12773489, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14632191, 6 years agoDoes exactly what it says on the tin, very simple but extensible.

- Rated 5 out of 5by harl windwolf, 6 years agoSimple & very useful. Particularly the regex/expert mode really helps (even with the prefab settings). The rather thorough description and the dev's responses show that he knows what he's doing (as can be expected from an experienced academic mathematician).
All the best to Mr. Väth. - Rated 5 out of 5by tehbilly, 6 years ago
