I had trouble with WiseStamp and was advised to create a new profile. I did and the WiseStamp issue was resolved. However, I now have no bookmarks on the new profile. I copied the places. file from the old profile to the new one, but with no success. The bookmarks do exist on the old profile. I like having WiseStamp working, but need those multitude of bookmarks more! Any advice greatly appreciated. :)

Did you try to restore from another JSON backup?

You can try to move places.sqlite to another location and only leave that backup file in the bookmarkbackups folder.

Thanks for the links - I didn't have any luck, so I just went back to the default profile. I'll live with the wonky WiseStamp signature line - or not, actually, since I'm disabling it! I can't be without all those bookmarks!!!!!!
