Bookmark Pro Extension

KNOWN ISSUE June 12 2020: In Chrome 83, the bookmark menu is popping up instead of Bookmark Pro when using the keyboard shortcut. I am investigating and hope to have this fixed soon. A temporary workaround is to click the Bookmark Pro extension icon instead of using the keyboard shortcut.

If you're a power user of Chrome's basic bookmarks, then you're probably not very satisfied with the experience of saving bookmarks in Chrome.

This extension replaces Chrome's default Save Bookmark popup with a new popup experience that has modern, search-empowered features and a clean design. (Note: This extension does not work when using Google's newer Bookmark Manager extension.)

+ Start typing to smart-search for a folder instead of digging through a menu for it.
+ Choose from 3 recently-saved-to folders without searching for a folder at all.
+ Create and save to a new folder without needing to open a new popup.
+ Update the location or delete the bookmark if you've already saved the page.
+ Elegantly designed using Google's new Material Design language.
+ Highlighted a favorite quote? It'll automatically be prepended to the bookmark title.

How does it work? Keyboard shortcuts?
+ Bookmark the same way you always have, whether through the Bookmarks menu, star icon, or keyboard shortcut (Mac: Cmd + D, Others: Ctrl+D)
+ Tab to jump between inputs, ESC to escape, and Enter to Save, just as you'd expect.

Miguel Garza (ID: 000000226052b14b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/16/2023 This extension is quite good but I found a bug with updating a bookmark's title. If you edit the title of a bookmark that you've saved previously, the title edits are not saved.

Sandys Buys (ID: 000000e51ed5636b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/06/2022 This worked well and did what it said it would do.

Andrea Del Chiaro (ID: 000000c693fb35b0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/16/2021 Perfect! Makes bookmarking pages much more quicker and efficient. One suggestion: when bookmarking a page that is already bookmarked, it creates a new one instead of moving it, resulting in two bookmark of the same page. An option to switch behaviour would be perfect. Thanks

Jörg Zimmer (ID: 000000ad1f5ee17f) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/20/2021 It's okay but it doesn't show a folder tree indicating subfolders but all folders on the same level. I use a folder structure with many subfolders and the huge plain folder list is just not suitable to me. I would like to collapse folders.
