Hi hyFoxy. It is not compatible with firefox12. You have to wait until a compatible version is available for firefox 12. Please check this article Bookmark Tags

You can sort your Bookmarks and History items in the Library window

  • open Bookmarks Library using CTRL + SHIFT + B shortkeys
  • right-click a column and select the additional columns you want to appear in the Bookmarks Library

Check and tell if that's what you were looking for.

Ok, I've figured out that after installing the recommended add-ons, searching for text parts in URL string works fine, but searching for text in "description" field doesn't work as requested (see screenshot below)

Advanced searching in Library tool seems to be a little bit tricky;-)
