not all tags show up in the awesome bar

I have noticed that when I type a tag in the awesome bar, only a few of my bookmarks tagged with that word show up as suggestions, even though they appear as correctly saved in my bookmarks library. I restarted the browser in safe mode, but that didn't make a difference. Another user suggested the issue was related to the FastestFox - Browse Faster add-on, but I don't have that add on installed. I also typed a + after the tag (in the search bar), but it didn't help.

When you use the + sign, put a space between it and the tag. For example:

music +

not
music+

Thanks Chris. I had tried that already. Not working. For example, I have about 6o bookmarks tagged under one tag, and a tag search in the awesome bar (even with added + sign) only yields a handful of them.
