Where do bookmarks disappear to?
Hello community members. Has anyone run into this? I'm using Firefox version 158 (doesn't matter if it's the standard or the Nightly version) for ARMv8-A on android 16 (EMUI) and android 10 (androidOne).
Here's the situation: I have saved bookmarks. In the "Homepage" settings, I have "Bookmarks" and "Recently Visited" enabled. I accidentally deleted a bookmark from the homepage - I tapped the wrong spot, long-pressed, and hit "Delete" (meaning I deleted it from the actual Bookmarks section, not just the "Recently Visited" list). Now, the bookmark still exists in the browser's bookmarks list, but it won't show up on the homepage. Toggling the switches in the settings didn't bring it back, and neither did renaming or recreating it. How to restore a bookmark to the home page? Is this bag?

Hi
The bookmarks that are shown on the home screen are those that you have recently bookmarked. If you delete the bookmark and save it again, it will once again appear there.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work. I wrote about this in the first message (...Now, the bookmark still exists in the browser's bookmarks list, but it won't show up on the homepage. Toggling the switches in the settings didn't bring it back, and neither did renaming or recreating it.).
For example: I'm adding m.twitch.tv to my bookmarks ⭐. A "Bookmarks" section appears on the home page and Twitch appears in it. Next, I press and hold the bookmark > the "Remove" menu item appears, and I tap it. This bookmark Twitch disappears from the home page.
- I am going to menu > Settings ⚙ > Homepage and refresh option Bookmarks (switch on/off/on) - no effect.
- I am going to menu > Bookmarks . There's a Twitch bookmark here. I am trying rename her name (for example Twitch2) - no effect (it still doesn't appear on the homepage).
- I'm removing it from my bookmarks and trying recreate (again adding m.twitch.tv to my bookmarks ⭐) - no effect (it still doesn't appear on the homepage).
