Closed lazymonkey2 closed 8 months ago

lazymonkey2 commented 8 months ago

Hello, is it possibile to mantain status when changing the sidebar? I explain: I use bookmarkos.com to store my bookmarks, and I want to show them in the firefox sidebar using your extension. In my bookmarks I have many folders and subfolders, that I can navigate in the sidebar. But when I momentariliy change the sidebar (like from Open in sidebar to History) and then go back to Open in sidebar the page is reloaded and I loose the folder I had opened before. Is is possibile to remember the status of the sidebar? Thanks.

Hi, lazymonkey2

It is impossible. When the sidebar switches to different one, it requires reloading. This is behavior of Firefox. Basically the feature like remembering the status should be implemented by a service provider (in this case it is Bookmark OS). I don't know that they provide you this service via a website or Firefox extension but they should be able to materialize the feature.
