The duplication of the site title about yet-another-speed-dial

[conceptualspace]

fixed in v1.15

[conceptualspace]

parallel processing of multiple bookmarks (as in case of sync/import) was overwriting global variable; reduced to local scope

[HDark15]

The Firefox sync carried the error to the new profile
Is there a way to reset it?
Is it by re-installing the extensions?

do you mean the bookmarks don't have the right titles? and just to confirm, you mean the titles were wrong on device A and then synced to device B, right? the bug that originally caused the problem should have been fixed in v1.15, so just want to make sure the sync isn't causing additional problems with the titles.

assuming that's correct, i have one idea to fix them up. if you're OK with using the URL as the title, we can easily run a function to assign the url as the title.

alternatively, YASD could loop through the bookmarks and fetch the <title> tag from each site, the only downside being that it could take some time to run depending on how many bookmarks you have

let me know what you think and i'll share further instructions on how to do it

Yes, thats right

I have no problem with both of them. I will choose YASD so I can get proper title
Can it fetch the thumbnail too? Cause all the thumbnail gone and it will be pain to click refresh thumbnail one by one

i'm going to push v2.1 to firefox shortly. then to update all your images: open the dev console (ctrl+shift+i) and type this: refreshAllThumbnails()

@heywolf15 to update all your titles to match the URL, open YASD and paste this code into the dev console:

async function resetTitles() {
    console.log("updating titles to match urls...")
    const allFolders = folders.concat(speedDialId);

    for (let folder of allFolders) {
        let children = await browser.bookmarks.getChildren(folder);
        for (let child of children) {
            if (child.url && child.url.startsWith('http') && child.title !== child.url) {
                console.log("  >>> ", child.url)
                await browser.bookmarks.update(child.id, {
                    title: child.url
                });
            }
        }
    }
    console.log("done!")
}

then just enter the command below and hit enter:

resetTitles()

that should do the trick 😄
