Yes! But the following fix sounds good! I will try it too! Thanks! More 
below...



You might look at
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/show-parent-folder/?src=ss

I use it with SM 2.32.1 after I run it through the Extension Convertor
at http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/ -- Works great for me. You
set the columns you want to show in the search when using the Bookmark
manger by going to View in the manger.


When I went to the add-on link above it show that it is now compatible
with SM 2.33.1, how did you get it to install?


Forget that I see you need to run it through the add-on converter the
next link down. Thank you!


Hope you got it to work. The Extension Converter works great for many
add ons.


Yes I did get it to work, and yes it does work great.


I am glad to read of this, yet skeptical from experience. Profile 
corruption plagues Seamonkey. Until that profile corruption problem is 
fixed, Seamonkey can never improve for serious users! And every new 
add-on / Extension / ... causes more trouble.


Complaint:

Folders  Bookmarks lost in the Seamonkey Bookmark system, lost in 
folder hierarchy, is a problem for years. Many users know it. But then I 
find the Seamonkey Bookmark system a bigger mess than it was prior to 
the Firefox Bookmark system being added. The older Seamonkey Bookmark 
system, that was initially updated from the Mozilla Suite - where 
Seamonkey came from, was superior in many ways, not so damned clumsy 
anyway! The original Seamonkey group did very well solving problems, 
updating  making the old Mozilla Suite better. Where did they go?


Firefox is a mess  the Bookmark system is the worst of it. That is why 
I ditched Firefox when it first appeared for Windows XP. And then, as I 
switched to Ubuntu in 2012 - I trashed the Firefox they included with 
the package,  installed Seamonkey. I returned to Mozilla/Seamonkey 
quickly after trying Firefox! Irrelevant for now...


Solution:

Anybody looking for a stored but lost folder or bookmark, lost in the 
Seamonkey Bookmark folder hierarchy, can find it using the bookmark 
manager search feature,  then find the folder where it is - using this 
procedure,  correct their missing link:


1) In the Bookmark Manager, Search to find missing bookmark; Then;
2) Click on the missing bookmark(online or offline - irrelevant);
3) Once the page loads or errors from being offline, right
   click the page  select Bookmark This Page;
4) A small window will open offering to Edit This Bookmark;
5) See to the right of the Folder: entry a small square
   with an arrow,  click it to open / expose the full
   folder hierarchy below, where the missing folder /
   bookmark is stored;
6) Scroll down to locate the highlighted bookmark folder
   name, the hierarchy of folders is exposed;
7) Now you know where the missing folder / bookmark is,
   in which folder - full hierarchy! Leave it there to
   use, or move it, - your choice!

Obviously a better way is needed. Full hierarchy needs
to be included openly in the Bookmark manager like the
creation  visit date is. Maybe when Properties is
opened. That may be harder than its seems though,
program code required. But for now...I hope this helps
too. If it does not - let me know. This is an old bug
to me as well!

Load the bookmark. Click on the bookmark icon in the address bar. Click Choose in the 
drop-down Folder list. This will highlight the bookmark's folder in the tree.

WFM in 2.12.1, at least.


I had never tried that -- turns out my missing folder was in the most 
improbable location, and has now been moved back where it belongs!
