- 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

It's already there. Please see the checkboxes on the results page. ;-)

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?

- Rated 3 out of 5by ryufeliz-1364607282.04, 7 years agoRepara los marcadores huerfanos, duplicados y rotos, siento que le falta más cosas como poder organizar los marcadores en carpetas o modificarlos de alguna forma, pero van por buen camino

posted 7 years agoThank you for your feedback! It would be great if you could open issues in GitHub for every suggestion you have. Thank you for your help! - Rated 4 out of 5by freaktechnik, 7 years agoWorks very reliable since version 2. Still getting some weird duplicates about built in items (place:type and place:transition), which is probably a data integrity issue in my profile/sync data.
- Rated 5 out of 5by happysurf, 7 years agoVersion 2.0 works like a charm.
Remember (if the API allows it) the reload favicons feature. :-)
Thanks.Developer response

Once such a feature will be possible I will add this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12831979, 7 years agoff59, plugin v.2.0.
finally all troubles fixed, works as intended. - Rated 5 out of 5by Óscar, 7 years agoGenial, al acabar muestra de manera muy fácil los marcadores con problemas y su posible solución.
Great! when it finishes it show in an easy way the bookmarks with problems and an easy workaround to fix it. - Rated 5 out of 5by catweazle1, 7 years agovery useful addon for me and works fine here with Fx 59beta, it founds all duplicate and invalid Bookmarks, great work!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Flaschenpost Sorter, 7 years agoJa das stimmt.
Also das Entfernen von Duplikaten sollte automatisch gehen, d.h. man sollte eine Regel angeben können, nach der nur noch eines der Duplikate beibehalten wird (z.B. nach Datum, nach Abfolge gefunden, Verzeichnistiefe oder so)
Ich habe ca. 9000 Lesezeichen, von denen einige Duplikate sind (~200). Diese einzeln zu suchen und dann auch alle mittels eigenem Klick zu entfernen ist sehr mühsam.Developer response

Ich werde an diesem Wochenende Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 veröffentlichen. Funktional ändert sich dadurch nichts, aber unter der Haube hat sich dafür umso mehr getan.
Nach Veröffentlichung von Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 werde ich schauen, welche funktionalen Verbesserungen in das nächste Update kommen. Vielleicht ja sogar dieser Vorschlag. Geplant ist diese Verbesserung in jedem Fall. Nur die Reihenfolge, in welcher die geplanten Verbesserungen kommen werden, ist noch nicht sicher, deswegen will ich noch nichts versprechen.
In jedem Fall wird es nicht wieder acht Monate bis zum nächsten Update dauern, weil die technische Grundlage nun eine bessere ist. ;-) - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13838283, 7 years agoGreat idea, but very slow for me. FF Quantum 58.0.2 (64-bit). 30MB/sec internet connection.
Scan started. Number of bookmarks: 9776
Somewhere around 9200 Checked it slowed down considerable.
After 9600 it slowed down so much I thought it stopped.
It is still checking, so I guess it is working.
It's Checked: 9638 Warnings: 4355 Errors: 2698
It has taken me over 20 minutes to get this far and at the current very slow rate it will take another 4 hours.
I assume it will have a method for fixinig errors and removing duplicates. I don't se that menu choice while it is scanning
Never completed scanning all bookmarks and I can't see how to fix errors and delete duplicates.Developer response
posted 7 years agoOf course it's slow if Firefox has to open almost 10,000 websites!
Some servers do not respond. Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 will handle this situation and abort the request after 15 seconds so the "Never completed scanning" will be fixed with the next update (to be released this weekend).
> I can't see how to fix errors and delete duplicates.
Just click the "delete" as you can see it in the screenshot.
Please check out the new version in a few days. Thank you. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ryan B., 7 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firebreathing, 7 years agoGreat idea, but so many false positives that it makes it worthless. Can only give it one star until bugs fixed. This should have been released as "alpha" version.

posted 7 years ago> This should have been released as "alpha" version
That's not a fair statement. It's not the fault of Bookmarks Organizer. There were some false positive mitigations in Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 but these improvements were not possible before Firefox 59 for technical reasons.
Can you please test again with a current version and re-review? Thanks! - Rated 1 out of 5by Alfred Schneider, 7 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by doncalvo, 7 years agovon ca. 2300 bookmarks werden 2297 in wenigen minuten gescant, die vorletzten 2 brauchen 10 minuten, die letzte ist auch nach 30 min. nicht gescant - ein zwischenergebnis über 2299 gescante bookmarks wird nicht dargestellt. absolut unbrauchbar.

posted a year agoCan you please test again with a current version and re-review? Thanks!- Rated 1 out of 5by Hirschferkel, 7 years agoIt does not work! Whith each runcycle the addon detects new, not working URLs (while some of these work!) and after deleting these new ones occur again.
And it takes ages to scan all links (seems there is no good delay after which not working URLs get aborted)
No control what the addon does. While it works in the background one cannot see if it crashed already.
No chance to interrupt or see intermediate results. No batch processing of links. I would not recommend it.
After having deleted not working URLs and starting the Addon again, the addon detects new entries which it did not durung the first run? So it does not work reliable... be aware.Developer response

The only lacking features:
- an option to be able to disable the http to https redirect warnings.
Because I use an automatic http to https redirector (extension : Smart HTTPS), so all HTTP urls are in Warning...
- a new functionality to be able to list the empty folders - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12355087, 7 years ago
