Flow.Launcher.Plugin.FirefoxKeywordBookmarks

A plugin for flow launcher that lets you open firefox bookmarks from their keyword.

Prefix System

When adding bookmarks from multiple profiles, you may get to the point where you want to differentiate between them. Our solution? A prefix system. To add a prefix to a profile's bookmarks, head into your plugin settings, and find the line where you put the path to the profile you want. At the start of the line (before the C:/ stuff), add in your prefix followed by a pipe. For example, if your prefix was !, you would add !| to the start, so the line would read something like: !|C:\Users\default.MyPC\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\s8mjakhr.default. FKB will then add the prefix to the start of all bookmarks found in that profile.

Note

The prefix can only be 1 character, but it can be any character.
