I'm using 24.6.0, and trying to move a few Bookmarks. I've tried holding down the Ctrl-key, but only one Bookmark at a time remains highlighted. Is there a way to do this?

    Hello David, hold down the command key (labelled  ⌘) and click the bookmarks you want to select. If you want to select bookmarks in a row, hold down the shift key and click on the first and the last bookmark.

    Thank you, Chris. I see my mistake now: The Bookmarks page lists two versions of the Bookmarks - a condensed list on the left side of the page; and a more detailed list in the center of the page.

    Maybe it's because I'm still learning technical English, or because I came from another browser, but I was applying the key-commands to the list on the left, where they don't function.

    May I please offer a suggestion to add a picture to the Knowledge Base that shows which list of Bookmarks to apply the commands to? This may sound a bit stupid, but it would have cleared things up for me, and it may do the same for others new to TenFourFox :>)

    Thanks, Chris.

    I hadn't even thought of that. I thougth you'd mixed up the ctrl and cmd keys.

    See attachment for what you can do to navigate and re-oder stuff in the Bookmarks Library window.

    No, it was my mistake. Thanks for clearing things up, Chris!
