Location bar search returns wrong bookmarks. Bug?

Say I save a bookmark to "mozilla.org", and give it the name "XYZ". When I type "XYZ" in the location bar, autocomplete will suggest the mozilla bookmark.

Now say I rename this bookmark, calling it "ABC" instead. Now *both* "ABC" and "XZY" will give me the mozilla bookmark as a suggestion.

In other words, location bar autocomplete seems to remember old bookmark names instead of forgetting them. Bug, or feature? If the latter, any way to disable it?

hello oda.krell, i think it's a feature. it isn't the old name of the bookmark that is stored - part of the algorithm that suggests the results in the drop-down field once you start typing in the location bar will remember what characters you've typed in and which entry you have chosen as a result. this is done to list that site higher the next time you start typing the same characters... this kind of data is stored within the moz_inputhistory table within the places.sqlite file in your profile folder (that also holds your bookmarks & history). you could use an addon like https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/ in order to inspect or alter certain elements stored in that database.

Make sure that you really rename the bookmark and that you aren't creating a copy.

You can enter the URL in the search bar in the Library or sidebar to see if multiple entries come up.

... aaand solved. Thanks a lot :) I deleted the search term from places.sqlite, and now the location bar suggests only based on the actual bookmark name again. Guess I'll have to do this every time I rename an important bookmark.

P.S. the squlite manager people really should put a big flashing note how to open the program. of the entire procedure, finding out how to start the manager took the longest :P

Surely the old bookmark name would not be recalled if you had cleared your history?

Nope. Tried that.

Looks like the places.squlite value stores the search term, the count, and some bookmark location value.

I don't know why deleting and re-creating the bookmark didn't solve it, since I would have expected that a new bookmark (even one containing the same URL) should have resulted in a new location value.

In any case, nothing else had worked, not deleting the bookmark and making a new one, not deleting history. Deleting the search term/bookmark value pair from places.sqlite fixed it however.

URLs typed in the location bar seem behave differently than site that you visit.
If they appear in the drop-down list the you should be able to remove them in the usual way by highlighting an entry in the drop-down list and pressing the Delete key.

It is usually not recommended to edit or remove data in the places.sqlite because that database consists of a lot of tables that are linked via specific fields and can cause the file to get corrupted or may require re-indexing.

tried that as well. item re-appeared in the list once I searched again.
