Add new item to bookmarks toolbar bookmark menu

Postby Anonymosity » Wed 07 Sep, 2011 5:07 pm

Is there any way to add "Bookmark All Tabs" to the bookmark menu in the bookmarks toolbar? What would I put into the userChrome.css file? I am using Firefox 6.0.2.

Doesn't "Bookmark This Group of Tabs" bookmark all open tabs?

Dave,
is this what you are referring to?. Combining my link with Dave's statement
"Bookmark This Group of Tabs" bookmark
makes sense, may be

Thanks, but I am not asking how to open bookmarks in tabs. I simply want to add something which is present in the normal bookmarks menu to the bookmarks menu in the bookmarks toolbar.

Hello Fulvio,

Yes, this part:

An alternative method to steps 5 and 6 is to open all the sites you want in tabs. Then choose Bookmark > Bookmark All Tabs. The browser will ask you to create a name for the folder that will be hold these new bookmarks.

Dave.

I'm not sure I understand what you want to do! Do you want to 'bookmark all tabs' as individual bookmarks or as a group of bookmarks? If the latter, I think 'bookmark this group of tabs' will do that.

Also, do you want to add a 'bookmark all tabs' button to the bookmarks toolbar? If the latter, I'm not sure if you can do that. I'm also not sure what you mean by 'the normal bookmarks' menu, unless you mean the drop down menu you get when clicking on either of the bookmarks buttons.

Regards,

Dave.

This is entirely different from what you said in first place. If you want to add a bookmark to the bookmark toolbar, go to Bookmarks|Bookmark this page. A popup will come up, and you select where you want that particular bookmark. Or, if you wish to redistribute bookmarks from different location, select Bookmarks|Show all bookmarks (opening the Library popup), and drag an drop the desired bookmark wherever you want it in the Personal Toolbar. I use several folders in the Personal Toolbar, so it is easy to get at, almost, everything, if I know where I put it, and my folders are logical. And, you don't have to put the bookmarks in folders.
If you mean something else, please explain.

I wanted to add another command to a menu, not a toolbar. Someone else called my attention to another way of doing what I want, so I'll probably end up doing it that way instead.

It does not matter. I was told it cannot be done that way anyway.

I DO understand what you're talking about. The other people just don't understand which means that they just have never used 'Bookmark All Tabs'.

I upgraded, just now, to 6.0.2 and completely PANICKED to not find 'Bookmark All Tabs' as a choice in the Bookmarks drop down box. I use it at the end of each internet session; I imagine you do the same.

I Googled some (used search string, "How to ...) and learned GREAT NEWS:

1) Just Right Click on any tab, and you will see the Bookmark All Tabs choice for you to select.

OR, perhaps easier,

2) CNTR-SHIFT-D

Hope you get this information.

Exactly. That was what I was told. I do not use that very often. If I ever do want to do that again, I now know the easiest way to do that.
