Bookmarks are now sorted.?

I have 3 RSS folders on the Bookmarks Tool Bar.
I just noticed that the bookmarks are sorted via the Bookmarks manager.

I now have to hunt and peck to find my favorite bookmarks.

I do not recall this being the case, before.

If so, is there a way to revert this feature.?
Muscle memory seems more efficient.

I restored the old profile and found bookmarks had returned to their original place.

So, the new profile in Mint 17.3 resulted in bookmarks appearing in a random sort order.
They are not sorted in Mint 19 and remain where I put them.

I restored earlier bookmarks via FEBE, but had the same result - random sort order.

Perhaps related to this.

Hi, back2themoon.

Apparently, something in the profile is operating on

Code: Select all

places.sqlite
file, which is shown as an 'Unknown' file type. I do not know if that is normal, but I would think such a file type would be known.

Only

Code: Select all

places.sqlite-wal
is showing a file type, as 'Binary'.

Something has changed, but I do not know what or where.
I would suspect something in Pale Moon 28.0.1 has changed, as this is a first, for me.

Thanks for that link.
