More for the wishlist: Folders

Open chrisschrader opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Hello, first of - thanks for the extension. Helps me a lot to find my way around the bookmarks. But I can only second some ideas put forward here: adding new icons for addresses that need them, easier reordering, mix text and icons, and finally my own addition: folders. Safari lets me put folders into the bookmark bar, to organize addresses under topics. Switching from the regular bar to FaviconBar I am really missing that. Any hope you'll include that? Best, Chris

From my basic understanding of Safari Extensions folders might be difficult, but I have a couple ideas of how they could be pulled off.

For folders: I did not get this in release 1.3 but I am still working this issue for future releases (the foundation to it is built, but it has proven to be difficult)

The other features mentioned above included in the current release.

Yes please put me down for FOLDERS too! I use them on the favicon bar on both Chrome and Firefox. In FF they just showed up automatically when I brought in a big list of favorites into what they call the "Bookmarks Toolbar".

Anyway, despite the missing folders, your favicon bar for Safari is Awesome!

SJCman: Thanks for the comments. As for folders, it's planned but it might not make everybody happy. There are only two ways I can figure out to do folders. The first is a drop-down text menu with link names but no icons, and the second would be a horizontal expanding menu with icons. I'm trying both, we'll see what works and what doesn't. Sadly I have no way to create a drop-down menu with icons in Safari's extension framework :(

im on board with horizontally expanding folders that sounds great!
