In wich table does firefox store bookmark labels?

One of the sites for which I have saved a lot of bookmarks has changed their url structure. - they moved from http to https - they moved pages into a different folder

When I visited a bookmark, I was redirected to the new location, but that new location didn't show as being bookmarked.

I found an article that explained that the bookmarks are saved in the database file places.sqlite so I used an sqlite editor to search & replace the url in the moz_places table » url field. That part worked great, all these bookmarks in Firefox now have the correct url.

But still, whenever I go to a bookmarked place, it still doesn't show the blue star that indicates the page has been bookmarked.

Also, these bookmarks have labels in the library, but these labels are not shown when I select a bookmark in the library, as you can see in the attached screenshot.

I guess my search & replace action damaged some internal reference, but I can't find which reference. I have checked every table in the places.sqlite database file, and can't find the table that holds these labels.

Suggestions anybody?

Thanks JP
