Download _HOT_ Bookmark Manager
Lauretta Jaffray
And Brave's bookmark manager is an absolute joke. Other browser's will let you sort your bookmarks by most recent. Brave ... doesn't let you do this. In fact the ONLY sorting option that it seems to offer is by name ... and that's IT!
On my bookmarks bar is a folder icon. Within that folder are MOST of my bookmarks. Some of them are folders. When I open one of those folders there are many links. This way I quickly find what I seek and click the link.
Now, If the bookmark manager is opened (instead of using drop down menus) it opens in its own browser page. That page shows bookmarks and folders. At the end of each line on the right side of the page are three vertical dots that indicate more choices.
I have found that on my computer, the initial page of the bookmark manager WILL NOT automatically scroll up if I am viewing the last of the bookmarks. Even if the page had to be scrolled down to get there. The automatic scrolling to the top of the bookmarks always happens inside an open folder on the bookmark manager.
I went to the Chromebook with GNU/Linux and opened the Bookmarks Manager page. The settings are still for allowing hardware acceleration, but the bookmarks are not automatically scrolling upward after a couple of minutes. The two computers are synchronized. Would the settings change in one affect the other?
Luckily I also heard that the bookmark manager is extensible and you can make your own, so I did. Attached is a zip and in it is a new bookmark manager that scanns into depenedencies, but not vi.lib or user.lib by default. Extract the files into the following folder:
Now when you open the Bookmark Manager from the View menu item you will be prompted to choose the bookmark manager you want to use. It looks like these settings can be wiped out through editing the LabVIEW.ini file. It would be nice if one could double click on the bookmark manager they wanted to use but I'm happy with the fact that NI allowed for new managers in the first place.
I just discovered your post when I came across the same problem. I've been scattering #TODO all over the place in subVI's to make notes of stuff to handle later. Later has now come. I opened up the bookmark manager and only found the ones in my main VI. Where the heck are the rest? Well, I only explicitly put subVI's in my project tree if I have a specific reason, otherwise I let the Dependencies folder gather them up. So I wasn't seeing the subVI's. Your manager fixes that.
I found one other oddity about the default bookmark manager. It has a choice for "Main Application Instance". You'd think it would have everything that exists in that LabVIEW application at that time. But it comes up with nothing. Not a single VI, not the particular project, not anything.

To export bookmarks from Vivaldi, click on the Vivaldi menu > File > Export Bookmarks. Bookmarks will be saved as an HTML file.
If you want to move a bookmark from one folder to another, use drag and drop as well. It might be easier when all folders show their contents, though. So, right-click on the list of bookmarks and select Expand All Folders to show the bookmarks in all folders.
I understand the security reasons for not allowing webpages to open local files, and that the bookmarks are stored locally, however, it seems to me that there would be an exception for something like bookmarks, or anything at chrome:// like chrome://history/ which has the same result.
Also, I know there are keyboard shortcuts to open the bookmarks manager and the link to open it in chrome's vertical ellipsis menu. I'm asking to know if it's possible to open chrome bookmarks manager programmatically.
I would like to use DTPro as a bookmark manager. I currently use URL Manager Pro which is 32 bit.
I imported my bookmarks into DTPro as html
I would like to find and select the bookmark I intend to use, click on it and direct it to the browser of my choice. How can I do this
Currently I have to select the bookmark, copy it and paste it into my browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome or Opera)
Thank you
The problem is that URL manager only permits exports in .html or .xbel formats
The latter is useless. The former is a link that opens in DTP or in my default browser. I would like to open it in another browser. Is there a way to do so?
Thank you, Bluefrog
Maybe it will work. I created a new database but, apparently, since all are URLs I cannot group them. My bookmark manager has them in folders I would like to reproduce. How can I do that?
Ever stumble upon an article that looks really intriguing to read? If so, have you ever been conflicted to bookmark the article and risk it getting lost in the chaos of your other bookmarks? Sounds like Pocket might be the right tool for you then.
GGather is possibly the most expansive bookmark management tool on this list. With GGather, you have the option to save/access your saved pages via a Chrome Extension, web application, via URL, via bookmarklet, and soon via iOS and Android.
Perhaps the greatest feature of this tool is its label and rating scale. GGather allows you to label your bookmarks and rank it on a scale of 1-5. This allows users to filter through their sources based on levels of importance.
Bookly.io is a private bookmarking tool that easily organizes your favorite websites and other frequently visited pages. You can customize and color-coordinate your folders through a desktop extension or mobile app.
Roboform is a one-stop-shop storage platform for all pertinent account information. Primarily used as a password manager, Roboform offers a bookmark function that allows users to keep a tab on important websites.

So with me using different browsers on different computers, how about making it so I can import all my bookmarks somehow? 1Password already has most of my websites already in it, so maybe a section to have the bookmark links by themselves, and then add bookmarks to sites that don't have a login?
@prime: Honestly, though I never think of it this way, that's pretty much what I use 1Password for already: bookmarks. I have some "Logins" saved that are just URLs. Importing directly from browsers is an interesting idea though. I don't think I've heard of it before. I'd personally never considered it because it's been at least a decade since I actually used bookmarks in browsers (using more than one really puts a damper on that). I don't believe that @MrC 's converter supports anything like that currently, but I wonder if it would be possible to do something with that. Do any browsers offer an export function? If not, that would make it problematic for either 1Password or the converter. Interesting idea though!
Is there an easy way to achieve this. I tried going to the site I wanted to bookmark and then tried to use 1password in the browser to do a dummy save login but this didn't appear to do anything.
I was looking at book marking sites with a bookmark tag that do not require a login and are just bookmarks and storing them in a vault to allow for portable bookmarks. I currently use xmarks from lastpass but need to migrate away from both xmarks and lastpass - so 1password is my replacement.
1Password wasn't designed to be a bookmarks manager, though it does have some similar characteristics in so far as Login items are concerned. You can leave the username and password fields blank, and just fill in the website field, when creating a Login item manually, but it feels like a kludge.
@brenty I think most browsers do export.
@Ben yes, all the big browsers sync, but not with each other. There are plug-ins/extensions for this, so I can sync Firefox with Chrome, but it's a pain. And yes, the auto-fill helps, but not with all. You delete the cookies and the auto fill is useless. I have folders set up in my browsers for security links, vacation ideas, hobbies, and all sorts of things. The auto-fill is also good if you remember part of the URL also, I have probably over 500-700 bookmarks, I'm not going to remember them all. I'll see a vacation idea, and save it in the vacation folders. Then when my wife and I talk about vacations, I go to that folder and look at my ideas.
I use Chrome, Firefox and Safari on a number of machines hence why I used XMarks to keep a common set of bookmarks :-)
It has the ability to export to HTML - Shame it is not CSV - I could still manually copy and paste from the text version of the HTML file - here is a sample of the file produced by the export.
@MrC Thank You for your review and offer.
I set up a BookMarks vault in 1password and populated it manually with some of my bookmarks from XMarks just to see how it would operate. I decided afterwards that it was better to just use Chrome browser built in sync to handle my bookmarks and use Chrome on all devices that need access - google allow you to encrypt all the sync data with your own passphrase, instead of just your sync'd passwords with your account password - not that I store any passwords there anyway :-)
