How do I save the same bookmark in multiple folders? (Sometimes it's hard to remember what folder I put a bookmark in: LOTS of folders & some bookmarks are ambiguous/could go in more than one folder; so much easier to find quickly if I had that option.)

Dear sproulpat, I refer you to the link https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/bookmarks-firefox. see if the solution to your problem is there, otherwise just ask.

I looked there first per protocol. (It only saves a bookmark in the last folder you save it to; undoubtedly to prevent people from accidentally saving to multiple folders. But I want it saved in 2 or more folders sometimes/often.)

If you click the highlighted star on the location/address bar then you edit an already saved bookmark, so you can't use that to have a copy of this bookmark in a different folder.

You can drag the tab to specific bookmarks folders to have multiple copies of a bookmark. In the Bookmarks Manager (Library) you can do this via a Copy/Paste of an existing bookmark and paste the bookmark in a different folder.
