- Rated 4 out of 5by CStark, 6 years agoNice, helpful FF Addon although it routinely marks a Folder of my Firefox 60 Addons as "All Broken". They All work perfectly. Addon/Save temporarily Removes Red Dot but Next Scan produces same, Incorrect Broken tag.
Manual Deletes a Must as Other Broken Errors exist that may Delete Desired Bookmarks.
All below Work - Show Broken ---

Shows Always as Broken. It works as all others do.Developer response

- Rated 2 out of 5by Cool Franz, 7 years agoOverall it looks good and useful, however:
1) It doesn't explain why some bookmarks give an error
2) It returns as "errors" perfectly working bookmarks.
E.g. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/?src=search - It works fine but it's flagged as error
3) It should allow correcting multiple warnings/errors
4) Bookmarks paths are incomplete. This is very bad when trying to eliminate duplicates.
EDIT: that's it. After a couple of interactions it stopped working (I click check and nothing happens. Tried to close and reopen the tab, but it didn't solve. I'm going to uninstall it.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13866866, 7 years agoWorks well, no duplicates or broken bookmarks anymore!
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14025385, 7 years agoI can't figure how to use it. I had it search for "ERRORS". It found several, identified by a red dot in the HTML file it created, but my version does not have the delete all broken bookmarks thing to click on. Deleting them manually
would take a long time, but that does not work. I delete them in the HTML file, but they are still in my FireFox bookmarks.
It found about 5000 "Warnings" but I don't know what it is trying to warn me about.
I see in other review answers that I should be using version 2.0. How can I tell which version it is?
OK, now I can see it is version 2.0.1 by looking at the addons manager in firefox.
Is there a better way for me to reply other than editing my original comment?
I still cannot see a delete anything link. I took a screen capture. How can I sent it to you?
The Icon at the upper right says Hey. looks like there is a lot of cleanup to do, but does not show how to do that.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThere was NEVER a version without a link to remove all broken bookmarks so it's not possible at all that you don't have this feature.
For warnings you can see the original URL and the corrected URL, so I don't know what is not clear for you.
You can see in the add-on manager which version is installed.
Please don't give bad reviews only because you don't understand the user interface. You can ask questions on GitHub. But this add-on is working and giving bad reviews for working add-ons is really NOT okay… - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14020840, 7 years agoWorking well on a large collection of bookmarks. I wish there would be a way to disable the confirmation dialog for each delete.
Developer response
posted a year agoThank you! The confirmation dialog can be disabled in the add-on's settings. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12157899, 7 years agosorry, but yes i really think this is useless unless you can actually delete all those duplicates! like i said, i don't need the add-on to laboriously go through my own bookmarks and spend way too much time deleting them one by one. please add this essential aspect, then i'd be happy to change it from one start to five!

posted a year agoYou can delete duplicates. Can you please test again with a current version and re-review? Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13990307, 7 years agoI had a similar experience as Loquacious1 and Anonymous user 436dc3. I installed Bookmarks Organizer and the first time I ran it, the three balls kept cycling. The second time I tried, it ran to completion. However, the check bookmarks remained greyed out and it was unresponsive.
I uninstalled the Add-on. I downloaded the Add-on again. I reinstalled. It runs fine.
Can't say that this was the first time that a reinstall cleared up the problem. Been around since the NCR 300 series... - Rated 1 out of 5by Loquacious1, 7 years agoDidn't try to work. Selected an option to check duplicates, broken links or missing titles and the button to start remained grayed out on each one.
Developer: You mean like this other review you were quick to discredit and call fake that says the same thing I just did? You seem to not accept that your add on doesn't work for everyone and blame the user! This is a sign of developer arrogance. Your app is worthless if it doesn't work and it does NOT.
"I've installed it and I have a screen with a little box with 3 options of analysing bookmarks.
There are three balls rippling back and fore from small to large which I presume is telling me summat's happening, but - nothing's happening.
Half an hour now and Zero Bookmarks in the box on the screen.
Am I missing something ?
There IS also a box in which the words "Check bookmarks" appears. It is greyed out and cannot be selected."Developer response

Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for the four stars. Please add a comment what is missing for you. A no-5/5 rating does not make much sense if you don't tell the developer why you are not fully happy. The feedback is important to improve the add-on. Thank you. ;-) - Rated 5 out of 5by raymark, 7 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by RiCK, 7 years agoIt works this time since the update to 2.0.1
It could still use some additional features.
+Option to show only broken bookmarks, and not redirects.
+Option to show only redirects.
+Make it possible to remove folders, typically if the bookmark was the only one inside the folder and it was deleted, should be able to delete the folder too, without going to the Firefox Bookmarks view.
It's a great improvement over the older version I tried, keep up the good work.
reply: The checkboxes only appear if you are at the very top of the list. It would be better if you could make that part not scroll off the screen, as another layer or frame over the main frame.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for the new review!
> +Option to show only broken bookmarks, and not redirects.
> +Option to show only redirects.
It's already there. Please see the checkboxes on the results page. ;-)
> +Make it possible to remove folders, typically if the bookmark was the only one inside the folder and it was deleted, should be able to delete the folder too, without going to the Firefox Bookmarks view.
It's a good suggestion, I will consider this for a future feature update.

Thank you! :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Stefan, 7 years agoGreat add-on! Really cleans up and in a modern and usable fashion
- Rated 5 out of 5by NightOwl, 7 years agothanks for your reply
i checked again and found two things:
1.
some working links were only reported as broken when the tracking protection in Firefox (disconnect.me / basic protection) is on; i know it was stated to set it of, but i thought since v.2.x the add-on would take care of that, sorry my fault
(just for info, these were some of the links: http://statcounter.com/ ; https://www.forbes.com/ ; http://www.ip-tracker.org/ ; https://twitter.com/ ; ...)
2.
still, with tracking protection off, there are some other working links reported as broken; it seems to occur when a site redirects to a localized version
(e.g.: bookmark = https://www.seagate.com reported as broken, but it opens https://www.seagate.com/be/nl/ ; also bookmark = https://www.microsoft.com/nl-be/default.aspx reported as broken, but it opens the same link) ; (note: a second run gave the same result)
hope this helps, thanks again for this very usefull extension, 5 stars now
========
about a month ago i had problems with the add-on hanging at the last bookmark check(s); all fixed now in version 2.x, works like a charm (also fast: 1600+ bookmarks scanned in a few minutes)
4 STARS ! (only reason for that one star less is that some working links are reported as broken (e.g. twitter) but i understand some false positives are nearly inevitable 'cause site settings, etc.)
big thanks to the developerDeveloper response
posted 7 years agoThank you very much! :)
In my tests I didn't have problems with twitter. Could you tell me the exact URL of the bookmark? I would like to investigate this. Also: did you run the check a second time and was the same working bookmark reported as broken again?
Thank you for your help! - Rated 5 out of 5by Chm3, 7 years ago
