All tags are removed when reparing or editing a bookmark

[Mellthas]

All tags are removed from a bookmark, if I choose to repair a redirect automatically or manually edit the bookmark through the Bookmarks Organizer interface.

Tested with Firefox 54.

That's a Firefox bug. I created https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1440988. Thanks for reporting.

It's not a bug, it's the behaviour of Firefox. Tags are bound to the URL and not to the bookmark so if you change the URL of a bookmark, the tags are not lost, the tags are still there for the old url. Please see the discussion in the bugzilla ticket above.

I agree it's very confusing. Maybe things will change in the future. But for now I have to close the ticket because it's neither a bug in Bookmarks Organizer nor in Firefox.

Anyway, thanks for reporting, it was new for me, too. And who knows, maybe the bevaviour will be changed.

Thanks for the clarification!

You're welcome.

I added a note to the README:

I will also add this note to the description on addon.mozilla.org once Bookmarks Organizer 2.0 is released.
