Bookmarked Pages Not Appearing in Bookmark location

more options

I would bookmark a page by clicking on the star and ensuring it turns blue. There's a pop-up that i will check to confirm the bookmark's location. But when I click on the bookmark file with the correct labeled location, the bookmarked page doesn't appear. However, it will appear if I manually drag the bookmarked page and put it under the labeled location file. Either way, when I click on the 3 stacked bars> bookmarks >search bookmarks > type in the website name, the page will appear with a blue star. Instead of relying on manually bookmarking pages, how can i ensure the bookmarked page appears in the correct location when I simply tap the star icon?

In the first image, you can see I bookmarked a reddit page under "MCAT Stuff". In the second image, you can see the page is still bookmarked, but under the "MCAT Stuff" bookmark, the page doesn't appear.

Is it possible you have two folders with the same name? To find the current location of the folder in context, you can:

menu button > Bookmarks > Recent bookmarks

right-click the bookmark > Show in Folder

That should open the Bookmarks Sidebar with that bookmark selected wherever it is in the structure.

For the current page, a similar approach is to click the blue star, then:

Click the V button to the right of the current folder name to open the list box with the bookmark selected in context.

If you're like most people, those aren't the only duplicates, but at least now you know how to investigate.
