Thread: Question about Bookmark management

  1. Question about Bookmark management

    I am not thoroughly thrilled that Links went away and became Bookmarks
    Toolbar, and I had the same experience I have read on this NG regarding
    losing a buntch of bookmarks, but I expect I will live.

    Question is: some folders of bookmarks have a line at the bottom which
    says "open all in tabs" or similar, and some do not. I have customized
    my former Links to a Good Morning folder, which I open all, to check the
    weather, my bank balance, looking for a job, and social networks - fine!

    How come some of the others don't have the ability to do this and/or how
    do I turn it on and off. Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

    The only folder in my bookmarks menu which does not have "Open all in
    tabs" at the bottom is the bookmarks toolbar. I believe it is possible
    to get rid of that with the addition of certain code in the
    userChrome.css file, but I have not had that fail to appear in any
    folder that I created.

    The only folders that don't have a "open all" in mine are folders that
    are made up of only more folders. And folder that has links in it have
    the open all at the bottom, even if I have to scroll down in long lists.

    Huh! Well, I will have to check your comment more carefully. I just know
    I don't have an open all where I would like an open all. Thanks for posting!

    If you didn't do anything to remove the "Open All in Tabs" then I expect
    you are looking at places bookmarks that look like folders, looking
    at folders and no bookmarks, or you installed a Theme. Assuming
    that you are using Tabs that is. Extensions that might possibly mess up
    such things would have to have the word "Tab" or "Tabs" in their name.
