Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/1385

Describe the feature you'd like to request

My bookmark structure contains multiple layers of folders. When I chose HTML as the synchronization format, everything was fine. Any browser with Floccus installed can synchronize normally and the directory hierarchy is correct.

But if I download the HTML file from WebDAV locally and import it into the browser as a file, the directory hierarchy of the bookmark will be lost. All bookmarks are in the root directory. No any folder.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature. Hope to your reply. Thank you.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Down load the HTML file from WebDAV
  • Import the file to browsers
  • The bookmarks' structure is correct. With root folders and sub folders.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually export bookmarks file from one browsers and import to another.

Mh, I can confirm this. The problem is that there's not really a standard for this at all, it seems. (Note to self: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/platform-apis/aa753582(v=vs.85))
