As my bookmark folders get numerous I need to sort them.

I have a large number of bookmark folders that I would like to sort by name. It is difficult to scroll up and down to find the folder I want. I do understand how to sort my bookmarks WITHIN a folder but it would seem logical that the folders themselves would be sorted alphabetically. I also understand your awesome bar but want to sort the folders themselves.

Thanks Ron

Hi Ron, this feature isn't available on the menu, but you can do it in the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b) or in the Library dialog (Ctrl+Shift+b).

In either of those, right-click on Bookmarks Menu and choose Sort by Name.

Success?

Thanks. It works BUT my vote is to put it as a menu item.
