4 TopicsFeature Request: Add an optional user-defined description field to bookmarks
Hello! I'm constantly re-naming and re-organizing my bookmarks (favorites) so that they make the most sense to my future self when I have to circle back to some resource I might not have even thought about in quite some time. But it can be difficult to put enough information in the 'Name' field to remind me if it's really the location I want to be opening. One feature that I think would be really beneficial is to add an additional 'Description' field that can be defined when creating/editing a bookmark (favorite). If this field is populated with some text, then it should be displayed in the bookmark's tooltip when hovering over it. I see no issue having this field be character limited to some number of characters, as long as it can contain a couple of sentences. I think this would be a really neat feature that would enable users to have much simpler 'file structures' for their bookmarks (favorites), while also making their bookmarks more reliable over time. Sometimes users will make multiple links to various sub-pages that all exist within the same website. But with this extra information available, one could more easily just link to the higher-level URL of a website; because the bookmark (favorite) description could contain just enough info to help them find what they need from the one access point. Often, websites re-organize their pages in ways that could break old bookmarks, but higher-level URLs of a website change much less frequently. So this feature wouldn't just make navigating your bookmarks easier; in practice, it would also allow the user to make useful bookmarks that would be more reliable over time. Please let me know what you think! Cheers, -Dan657Views1like0CommentsIs there any way to turn off the built-in ad blocker for some pages?
Hey Insiders! Hope all are doing great. I recently noticed that Edge blocks ads when I set my privacy settings to strict, but the thing is some websites just don't open if any ad-blocker is on. Is there any way of say allow-listing particular sites? Many extensions and other browsers which come with built in ad blocking like Brave offer allow-listing few sites and the permission to let them use third-party cookies. I usually switch browsers when this happens ( the less time-consuming one ) or remove the overlay which prevents me from accessing the content using the console.Solved4.9KViews0likes3CommentsFeature Suggestion for Chromium Edge: keyboard shortcuts for Collections
Collections is one of the best browser feature additions I've ever seen in my using lifetime, and the only obstacle in my personal use to their perfection is their lack of keyboard shortcut support, especially the lack of a shortcut to show/hide the Collections panel. Here are my ideas for specific shortcuts: Show/Hide Collections panel Add current page to collection Start new collection. Of course, I'd love to read your suggestions/your feelings about this. Thank you!1.1KViews1like1CommentClose tabs to the left
Hi, I'm using Edge now as my main browser for a few weeks, Beta build on one device and Stable on the other. It is a great experience so far, but there is one feature I miss a lot that the browser I used before (Vivaldi) offers: Close tabs to the left of the tab you right-clicked. Close tabs to the right is already in Edge. Why not give us the other way? In my "workflow" of browsing the internet, I often build up more and more tabs and I am used to cut after some time and just close all the tabs that were opened before a certain point and have become irrelevant.3.9KViews3likes1Comment
