Review by Nunya
Rated 3 out of 5
by Nunya, 5 years agoI like this app a lot, but I had to take 2 points because I had to go through the whole list and manually select like 100 duplicates because they were in a different folder. Thanks for finding them, but you should tell people to merge folders before they bother with the duplicates. You should set is up as a process, bing bang boom, just do the whole thing. That's 1 point.
The other thing is your "Find Broken Urls" function isn't working. I don't know if it has to do with my JS settings or my VPN, but it's ignoring the timeout criteria I provided. I set it to wait a full minute before adding a site to the list. Maybe it's on my end, or maybe you set the maximum to 1 second and didn't tell me, but it looks broken.
Whatever it is, I bet putting all the functions into a single, linear process fixes it, at least on my end. Let me know if you do that and I'll fix your rating. Keep up the good work.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Gilby, 8 months agoThe only thing I learned about this add-on is that it lives up to its name. (itwillnotbeeasy) Installed, adjusted settings, and nothing. No start, go, launch, proceed, remove, engage, button to do anything. Uninstalled, reinstalled, used defaults, still nothing. No way to make it work. PLEASE HELP

posted 8 months agoTo launch the extension, you need to click on the puzzle icon in the top right corner of the Firefox window and then click on 'Bookmarks clean up'. - Rated 3 out of 5by Gitesh A., 8 months agoWorks well, but a search functionality would be great for those who have thousands of duplicates, like me :(

- Rated 3 out of 5by Wyrdling, 9 months agoDoes what it says pretty well. Strange choice to not include a 'Select all' for the duplicate finder, but you do for broken URLs. I get you want us to keep one item remaining, but what if I don't want any of them to remain? As someone who needed to manage close to 5000 bookmarks, this did well enough.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13156335, 10 months ago(Updated) Seems to work well. Rather difficult to find how to run it though. Perhaps the dev could add the instructions to the 'Description' or 'About this extension'?

- Rated 3 out of 5by Cyberknight, a year agoIt has some interesting ideas for selecting duplicates, like checking all similar bookmarks from a folder, but it quickly becomes messy when dealing with many duplicates across different folders (might work for people with fewer bookmarks, I guess). Unfortunately, this extension has no progress indicator, so there's no way of knowing if [Merge duplicate folders], for example, is really merging folders or just crashing badly, consuming lots of memory and processing power (after several minutes of waiting, I had to restart Firefox and didn't find anything different from before using it...)
- Rated 5 out of 5by krispyduck, a year agoInstall, press buttons. Done... mostly. Would recommend "Find broken URLS", , "Remove empty folders", "Merge duplicate folders", "Find duplicated bookmarks". The last one is understandably relatively manual as there is no way for the add-on to know which of the bookmarks you would like to keep.
Only thing I would love to see added is to have the dupes grouped when there are several dupes in the same folders. Maybe re-arrange the buttons to give better flow and maybe an auto button that does each task in the most optimal order...
But really, this is an awesome add-on and does what it says it does. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18300175, a year ago
