Feature Suggestion - Bookmarking
Added by Raven Nine about 2 months ago
While bookmarking in Privacy Browser is entirely functional I feel adding a new bookmark and installing it to a specific folder is convoluted so managing bookmarks could use some refinement;
The existing bookmarks button on the GUI modified to add a drop down with 2 choices;
'Add to Bookmarks'
'Go to Bookmarks'
'Go to Bookmarks' to maintain the original function of that button.
'Add to Bookmarks' to bring up a dialogue showing the current webpage name which can be edited right there in that dialogue and a Folders Button which shows the default folder in which the bookmark will be installed. Clicking that Folders button would bring up a list of user created folders allowing the user to click on the one they wish to add the new bookmark to.
Once done a Save button to complete the process if adding that new bookmark.
’Add to Bookmarks' could read 'Edit Bookmark' if that page was already bookmarked.
As a researcher I have hundreds of bookmarks and tens of folders. Sorting them into alphabetical order can be very tedious so I would request an automatic sort folders and bookmarks by alphabetical order or creation date.

There are currently three buttons in the bookmark drawer.
1. Bookmarks Activity
2. Add Folder
3. Add Bookmark.
Add bookmark adds a bookmark to the folder you are currently in. If you want to put the new bookmark in a particular folder, just navigate to that folder before adding the bookmark.
See Feature #1142: Add an option to sort bookmarks alphabetically regarding the automatic sorting of bookmarks alphabetically.

Yes I see that so my suggestion would be to modify the 'Add Bookmark' dialogue to include a destination folder option.

How do you feel that would be better than the current workflow of navigating to the desired folder before creating the bookmark?
As a side note, the drawer retains the current folder, so once you have navigated to that folder you can easily create a number of bookmarks in it.
