Steps to reproduce:

I have a folder in Library, Bookmarks Toolbar with items.
I go to "Views -> Sort -> Sort By Name".

Actual results:

The sorted list is not saved.

Expected results:

The items order to be saved after the items was sorted.

Summary: When using "Sort" in Library, Bookmarks Folder is not saved. → When using "Sort" in Library, Bookmarks Folder. Is not saved.
Component: Untriaged → Bookmarks & History

This feature is only for sorting view, not end bookmark placement.
You may try workaround by creating new folder beforehand, and next moving there these sorted bookmarks, so they will have your chosen placement.

Really you want to create a new folder and drag over 20 bookmarks or how many the user have to waste time for nothing ?
Is not hard to add a button to "Views" like "Save View" or something like that.

  • If i make that the folder is not appearing anymore in "New Bookmark -> Folder". Need to select "Choose...".
  • I don't know why is not the default the 'Show all the bookmarks folders' checked by default.

you can right click on a folder and choose Sort by Name. The temporary sorting in the Library is not saved instead.
