Anyone know how: put a *just-bookmarks* search box on the toolbar? A separate one, not the Awesome Bar, not Firefox Search Bar. I want to skip opening a Bookmarks side panel just to search it, my best method so far. Awesome Bar does NOT always work right.

Hi,

You can try to narrow it down to showing only the Bookmarks in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Privacy > Location Bar. Options > Privacy

This is not the solution.

The bar already is narrowed down to showing only the bookmarks as instructed here - it has been for months.

As I wrote, the Location Bar (or it used to be called Awesome Bar) often fails to work at all - does not react, does not pull up anything at all. That's why I'm looking for an alternative.

The intermittent failure of that bar has been happening for at least 3 Firefox versions including the current one.

It also sometimes (not always) won't "select all" when I click inside it preparing to navigate elsewhere.

There is never a failure to navigate to a URL once I manage to get one in there.

You can also try a new profile and load the bookmarks into it to check temporarily. From the old profile: Bookmarks (Alt + B) > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Export > Export Bookmarks to HTML, and from the new profile, the same steps except for the last step, choose Import from HTML instead.

If the new profile is okay, you can later copy the needed personal data from the old profile. Firefox stores your personal data and settings in another location separate from its files/folder. A new profile would have the default Firefox settings (Tools (Alt + T) > Options, and about:config ), and usually would also be empty of any Extensions and themes (Appearance) in Tools > Add-ons) and their settings. Also, a new profile would have no previous stored website data/settings etc., (Tools > Clear Recent History).

You must be joking. That's unintelligible, and it's not what I am asking for.

Not going to happen.

See capture.

Ahhh I see what you are wanting to do now. Unfortunately, that feature does not exist in Firefox right now. However, you can go to the Firefox addon site https://addons.mozilla.org, and there may be an extension to do exactly that.

That was my first strategy.

I was thinking maybe someone knows of a specific Greasemonkey script or something pre-configured (like code I can paste into userchrome.css) that will add this.

Or can anyone name a particular Add-on that I missed? (There are hundreds that have something to do with bookmarks.)
