One click update for all bookmark page titles #58

While scanning all bookmarks, it would be great if you could replace outdated bookmark page titles with the newest page title. So, basically the name or the heading for each bookmark. At the moment, only the URL is updated and you may still have the outdated bookmark page title.

There's an app that does it, but only one tab at a time. It would be great if this extension could be combined with the features of the app below to scan all bookmark headings in one go.

Hi,

I would like to see this as an option too. I have used this one : https://github.com/rwanyoike/bookmark-refresh But last updates in firefox broke it 😔.

This option is important for me. Because my search bar go through my bookmarks. They need to stay update.

That would be a great feature applied at the time to update redirected bookmarks.

If applied to all bookmarks, it would be nice to have sth to mark whether the title is original or has been manually edited, to avoid overwriting of manual titles. I guess Firefox does not mark bookmarks for that, but maybe Bookmarks Organizer can do that for new bookmarks ?

Of course, it has to do nothing or ask when there is no mark.

@owensgithub If you want you could submit an idea here : https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas to ask a new checkbox when you create a new bookmark, to tell if you want the title to be updated each time you visit it and the title has changed. Then, Bookmarks Organizer will be able to use this info.

I don't think I really need it.
