search - Is there a way of searching Firefox bookmarks by multiple tags without going into the bookmarks menu?


For bookmarks I know we have two options:



  • Option 1: Bookmarks Menu → drop-down bookmarks menu listing

  • Option 2: Bookmarks Toolbar → one click access to bookmarks


Is there some add-on/extension for Firefox which lets you search your bookmarks by multiple tags from Firefox without going to the bookmarks menu?


I want to be able to type:


Tags: work,book

into something like the Google search bar in the top right hand corner. Kind of like how you can use searches in Evernote and Gmail.



Answer



This feature is built into the address bar.


All you need to do is type a +, a Space, and then each tag, separated by a Space. So, if you wanted to search for all items tagged with both "comedy" and "video", you would type + comedy video directly into the address bar.
