Quicker Access to Your Unsorted Bookmarks

unsorted-bookmarks-tip To tell you the truth, I have not used the Unsorted Bookmarks feature in Firefox 3 that much at all.  Why?  Well, it is a ‘bit of a pain to get to.  You have to open your bookmark manager, open up all bookmarks in the tree then go down to unsorted bookmarks.  Want an easier way to access your unsorted bookmarks?

Right-click on your bookmarks toolbar, and select “New Bookmark”.

unfiltered-smart-bookmark

The name can be anything.  To keep things simple, for now we will just call it “Unsorted Bookmarks”.  You might want to shorten that to “ubooks”, “ub” or something like that if you want to save bookmark toolbar space.  Now for the location, type this smart bookmark string in:

place:folder=UNFILED_BOOKMARKS

Now hit the “Add” button, and you should see a new folder popup on your bookmarks toolbar named “Unsorted Bookmarks”.  Click on it as you would with any other bookmark folder, and you can see all of your bookmarks that have not yet been categorized into the rest of your bookmark folders.

UPDATE: For Firefox 3.5 (or for any version where this is not working) try to restart Firefox, then see if it works.  So add this bookmark, restart Firefox, then re-launch Firefox and it should work.

    Thanks – I was looking for this a long time. I even made some scripts to do this for me.

    Try adding it, then restarting Firefox (close Firefox completely, then open a new Firefox window). See if that helps!

    Hey, I just wanted to let you know, I in fact like the written material on your site. But I am utilising Chromium on a machine running version 9.04 of Ubuntu plus the look and sense aren’t very satisfying. Not a powerful deal, I can still essentially understand the articles and search for info, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of challenging to use while using config I’m running. Retain up the superb perform!

    I am really happy to encounter this information which I was searching for some time. This made me very glad… This great site has provided all of us very valuable content. Glad i found it

    Hi, I’m a professional pianist and I’ve created a stupid rule that allows me to take a 15 min break every 1 hour of practicing. Now, each break We’ve to perform something completely different, so mostly I go to Google and seek for that recommended last hour weblog. It can be fun to do something various and to learn about new points each and each day. BTW, now I’m playing. Bach. Your web page is excellent, I wish I could stay longer, but We have to get back to play… Subsequent time I’ll occur to visit again.
