Add back missing sort criteria like "last visited" and "most visited" #55

Closed eric-bixby closed 6 years ago

eric-bixby commented 6 years ago

There were sort criteria, such as reverse-URL, description, etc. that was removed in version 3.0.

This was removed because it wasn't obvious how to get this information from the chrome (web-extension) API.

Need to add this back, if possible.

As I've said, I just need the "last visited" criteria. I hope it'd get implemented soon.

I'll second that ... last visited is by far the best way to sort bookmarks :)

Hi Eric

Suddenly the sort by options have reduced to "name" and URL only... very confusing - I was using based on most used and last used. Now non-functional - will you be fixing this? thanks Zaph

eric-bixby commented 6 years ago

Yes, I'm investigating an update for "last visited" and "most visited". Looks like the History API may support this.

Taurean75 commented 6 years ago

This.

I've released version 3.1 to address this issue. Give it a try. https://github.com/eric-bixby/auto-sort-bookmarks-webext/releases/tag/v3.1

@eric-bixby, I just saw the "sort folders by" option. With that unchecked, I can use this again, and it's working great!

One thing, though: Sorting is triggered only when I click / open the folder. Is this intended?

downloading from github ff wouldn't let me load the add-on as it is not signed

eric-bixby commented 6 years ago

Right, you need to type "about:debugging" into the address bar. Then select the "Load Temp. Add-on" and select the downloaded .xpi file. However, version 3.1 is available from Mozilla, just update your add-ons.

@zaphmann, get it from AMO.

zaphmann commented 6 years ago

deleted it and got from tools - add-ons and it's working great! thanks

@eric-bixby, issue #54 really needs to be resolved.
