Can't restore recent bookmark tag, despite restoring recent tags and most visited
Hi there, I recently lost my 'recent bookmarks' and 'recent tags' from my bookmarks folder. I searched help on the forums and followed the advice to restore the smart bookmarks folder (going to about:config, double-clicking on the smartbookmarks link, setting the value to 0 and re-starting) and whilst this brought back the 'most visited' tag to the toolbar (which I was happy not to have) and the 'recent tags' to my bookmark menu (which again, I don't really want), it hasn't brought back 'recent bookmarks', which is the one I actually want!
If anyone can help, I'd be grateful.
Many thanks,
Anais

Hi there,
thanks so much. When I tried to restore it previously (via about:config as you suggest), I'd read somewhere that I should right-click on browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion and change the value from 7 to 0, which is what I did. That brought back the 'most visited' tag and recent tag, but not the recently bookmarked.
But I've just followed your advice, via the link you gave, and instead of changing the value to 0, I right-clicked and just selected 'reset' and that's sorted it. I have my recently bookmarked tag back.
Thanks again.
Anais.

Did you reset this config entry: browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion?
There is also another suggestion to build it back in Gingerbread Man's answer here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../989035
Name: Recently Bookmarked
Location: place:folder=BOOKMARKS_MENU&folder=UNFILED_BOOKMARKS&folder=TOOLBAR&queryType=1&sort=12&excludeItemIfParentHasAnnotation=livemark%2FfeedURI&maxResults=10&excludeQueries=1
