Very good. 2 suggestions: (1) Add a toolbar icon that opens a sidebar or popup with a list of the bookmarks in that folder. Similar to how Pocket used to be. Also seen in the outdated "Save-To-Read" add-on. (2) After creating a new bookmarks folder for this and setting it as the default for the icon, it also sets it as the default for all bookmarks, so whenever I bookmark something using the usual Ctrl+D it wants to put it in my "default bookmark folder" folder. Prior to this add-on, it would save new bookmarks in the most recently used bookmarks folder (so for example if I'm visiting 6 or 7 related sites and I want to bookmark all of them and put them all in the same folder, after I navigate to the correct folder when bookmarking the first one, all the others will have that folder selected by default). For some reason this add-on prevents that and sends everything to this default folder, making things a bit inconvenient at times.

    I like the idea of this but having 2 bookmark buttons next to each other doesn't sit right with me (firefox default star + new star) if the plugin can disable the firefox star that would be great. also I think the star icon shouldn't have a circle because it makes it harder to see, making it just a regular full sized star like the default FF one would be better, but I understand the choice considering there's no way to remove the FF star.

    Very 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!

    Some 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)

    I'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

    When dragging a tab into the bookmarks menu, dropping it on a folder, or in a folder flyout, results in the new bookmark being put on the bottom of the bookmarks menu instead. This occurs in every version beyond 2.13.0, which I haven't been able to update from due to this regression. Update: there is no change in this problem in version 4.0 and 2.13 still works perfectly.

    Used to work on Mac Firefox < 116.0.3. Used it happily for several years. Now, no matter what folder under the default folder I click on, the bookmark is only saved in the default folder.

    Now running the much simpler "Quick Bookmarks to Folder" which does what I need it to.

    Seems to have stopped working. Was great while it lasted. Wish this were a default option.

    It used to work, but last few days it just stopped, no longer putting my default book marks I set in a specific bookmark folder, it did however work for a long time before this, used ot be 5 stars. I guess good things don't last forever.
