Attachment: bookmark list/table

this is the bookmarks list/table i was referring to.

when i add a book mark it adds to the recently added bookmarks and not the bookmarks main list/table.

Are you sure you adding the bookmark to the bookmarks menu? How do you add the bookmark?
Notice that, if you use the star, the bookmark is added to Unsorted Bookmarks, not to the menu. you can click the star again to move it to bookmarks menu, or move it in the Library (select Show All Bookmarks from the menu).
