How to save a bookmark in multiple folders in an internet browser?

You can copy a bookmark from a folder into another.

For chrome, menu -> bookmarks -> bookmark manager, find the bookmark right click, copy, go to another folder and paste it.

For firefox, click the icon on the right of the star icon and 'show all bookmarks'. The rest is the same.


If the page URL in question does not have a question mark '?' in it, you can append some random numbers prepended with '?' like this:

If the URL contains a '?' you can append '&1' to the end of the URL, like this:

http://example.com/post.php?id=123&1

Now your browser should think it is a different webpage, so it allows you to put it in a new location, without the other bookmark's folder being changed.

Downsides:

  • The bookmark will appear multiple times when searching for it via location field.

In bookmarks manager ...

  1. Highlight the website that you want to copy.
  2. Right click it, and select "Copy URL."
  3. Click the folder that you want to copy the website to.
  4. Hit CTRL+V to paste the website in the new folder.
