Hello Team, I would like to sort my bookmarks in the sidebar by location. However the only option available so far is only by name. I am able to change it the bookmarks tool because there are several other options. However these changes are not saved so when I go to my sidebar I only get them by name (same as before). I would like to know if I can change this somehow or at least be able to save my set up so this can be reflected in the sidebar and not only in the bookmark's tool bar (Bookmarks-Show all bookmarks-Bookmark's toolbar). I am attaching an screen shot of the sidebar so you can see that the only option available is by name. Many thanks in advance.

The only option for sorting is by name. You can move the bookmarks manually in any order you want.

You might find something useful here; Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

Note that the Views menu in the Library is only meant for viewing purposes and doesn't actually sort the bookmarks (same as clicking a specific column on the header bar).
