The Delicious Bookmarks plug-in is amazing, but I'd like to see some way to sync bookmarks with Firefox Places. Ideally, this would happen automatically, but if server calls and load are a problem, it would be nice to schedule it once a day / week or just have an on-demand option.
Ok, from my understanding of things I should be able to sync my Delicious bookmarks to my Firefox. I recently switched computers, and through a misunderstanding with the guy who was trying to fix my old one, the hard drive was wiped before I could retrieve any of my data, so I'd really like to have my bookmarks back in my browser. I can't figure it out. I have the Delicious extension for Firefox and I tried to use the Full Sync button in the options, but nothing happened.
Several days ago all the 'favourite tags' that I'd added to my del.icio.us toolbar (Firefox extension) disappeared from the list of options available to me in 'bookmarks view' and so far I have been unable to re-add them.
These are the steps I'm following to try and re-add them:
- I open the 'Manage Favourite Tags' dialogue.
- When I type in the input field, the drop-down hint list works and I am able to select the tag I need.
- When I click on the 'add tag' button the tag is added to my list of 'favourite tags'
- When I click on the 'OK' button, the dialogue disappears (as expected) but the tags don't appear in the drop-down list for the 'bookmarks view'.
- When I re-open the 'Manage Favourite Tags' dialogue, the tags I just added have disappeared.
