![]() It would make the addon more worthwhile adding such features other than just being able to resize something which should be there to being with. This is one of the features in Firefox where just about anything you throw at it would be an improvement. While it's a welcome feature it would be nicer if it did more, perhaps replaced the archaic bookmarking dialogue with something better altogether with better features like, the dialogue not closing if it looses focus, allow the user to move it around, allow the user to copy text from the page they're bookmarking so they can paste it into the description of the bookmark they're creating, auto collapse all bookmark directories so it doesn't have to be done manually or else they will eventually all be expanded making it harder to find the location you want to store the new bookmark. Though lets face it Firefox is lacking so severely in this regard and many others it's getting ridiculous how many addons are needed just to keep Firefox sensible lately. It's great that this addon gives you the basic option of being able to resize the Firefox bookmarking dialogue. This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.0.1-signed). BTW, I use this extension with Firefox 10 and the Firefox default theme. Thank you very much Kashif Iqbal Khan for your extension. For those of us who collect and organize a lot of bookmarks this is an excellently helpful extension! At this point I only wonder if it’s the first of its kind among all browsers. ![]() The outcome is users deciding quickly and comprehensively from the “get-go” where best to file their bookmarks at the very moment they’re creating them. Edit Bookmark Plus remedies this by enabling the user to permanently enlarge the Firefox bookmark creation & filing window (nearly as large as the monitor’s screen if so desired) thereby providing a truly great view of their bookmarks from a tall root list to extensively wide sub-folder levels. They delay final filing decisions until later when an easier, secondary and larger Firefox "Show All Bookmarks" window can be used, but that’s just plain counter-productive. Often users (like me) just file their new bookmarks in a temp folder instead. In other words, Firefox forces users to scroll their bookmark directories up and down and side to side through this little window, searching narrowly until they get to the spot where they want to file their new bookmarks. Specifically, the Firefox bookmark creation & filing function uses a window so small that its user's view through it at any particular moment is limited to just a portion of their bookmark collection. As great as Firefox truly is (with extensions: the best!), its bookmark creation function has the same old choke point it and its competition have had since day one: FILING. Today’s PC users create more bookmarks than ever: long lists and folders and sub-folders full of them, but Mozilla hasn’t kept up. This user has a previous review of this add-on. The other issue I'm having is with "Old Location Bar 2.1.6" - where several features don't work in my new FF9 (notably the "Go" arrow and getting rid of the Star) but uninstalling your add-on made no difference to it, so the problem lies elsewhere! So no problems at your end! Thanks again. I've updated that now to v2.0 and your add-on works fine with it. ![]() The first issue I had was with an old version of my default theme - "Firefox2 the Theme Reloaded" v0.9.9 as the bookmarks tree wouldn't resize. Thanks for the swift reply and explanation, I was just concerned that I didn't seem to be uninstalling completely. By the way, can you tell me the addon name that conflicted and the issue that you faced? I might fix it if it can be. This is an issue in remembering the width and height of popup which will be fixed in later version. Afterwards when you uninstall addon, your window will appear in size that you left it at. If this is the case, install the addon, again, make the popup appear and re-size it to normal size. How do we uninstall your add-on? - Reply by Kashif Iqbal Khan (Developer) on Janu# I suppose that you mean that add bookmark window has larger size even after installing edit bookmark plus. But after uninstalling and restarting Firefox, the re-sizable Add Bookmark window is still there. (Sorry, I couldn't see a way to reply to your reply without starting a new review and then the original and your reply disappeared! (so I've quoted them here)) Original: Can't uninstall? Rated 4 out of 5 stars by Andy_P on Janu# I installed this and it looks like a good replacement for "OpenBook", but one of my other add-ons has stopped working so I tried uninstalling Edit Bookmarks Plus again to check whether it was causing a clash. ![]()
