Bookmarks won't export sub folders

Hello, editing Bookmarks is a manual process within Firefox Bookmarks. I would like to export sub folders and edit them on my preferred desktop text editors, then re-import said edited Firefox Bookmarks folder.

I have tried Firefox sub folder:

  • dragging and dropping to Desktop, however fails
  • copying/pasting to Desktop, however fails
  • AI promises the world like a conservative politician's gish gallop, but nothing works and wrecks the current setup.

I have exported the entire Bookmaks.html file, however editing html to text, then somehow only text remained without urls. So now I have restored from an old 3rd party's bookmarks and need to clean what Bookmarks are left. Sub folder management would be easier than entire Bookkmarks.html.

Thanks, but that's a guide on basic Firefox Bookmarks use. My solution is to export all Bookmarks, edit on desktop editor, import the cleaned file. Tricky bit is to convert the html to text without losing the urls and titles and vice versa.

Hi

There is a utility in Firefox that can help you with bookmark management. This support article should help:
