User reviews
Just what was needed to remediate the dysfunctional Firefox bookmark library/folder sorting. You'd think after all these years Mozilla would have done so. I can now sort my OTHER BOOKMARKS by DATE ADDED in most recent chronological order and have it stick. And NOT have it alter the bookmark order in the BOOKMARKS TOOLBAR folder. Right-click a specific folder and locate at the bottom the add-on option to configure. Remember to tick the box "Always keep sorted" then click "Confirm". I tried the Auto-Sort Bookmarks add-on extension from another dev, yet that did not offer specific folder configuration. The folder options were only global. As of writing, this was operational on version ESR 115.17.0 Please keep this add-on alive! Thank you!!!
