There is a problem when I create a Smart Keyword: the Keyword keeps disappearing, rendering the Smart Keyword non-operational.

Here's what I'm doing. I go to Bookmarks, New Bookmark..., I fill in Name, Location, and Keyword, and I click Add. Then I check to see that the new bookmark is there in the menu. It is, but when I click on its Properties, the Keyword is missing. As a result, the Smart Keyword does not work.

Here is an animated screenshot of the whole sordid process: http://i.imgur.com/y1Vk5H0.gif

This can happen if you have used the keyword before and have changed the URL of that bookmark.

If you edit the location (url) of a bookmark then best is to first remove the keyword, then edit the URL and then re-add the keyword. There is a problem with keywords if you edit the location field and best is to first remove the keyword if you need to change/update the location (URL) of a bookmark to avoid ending up with an orphaned keyword that can't be reused. You can use the SQLite Manager extension to remove this specific keyword from the moz_keywords table in the places.sqlite file. Otherwise you have to use another keyword.

You can use the SQLite Manager extension in Firefox to inspect SQLite databases.
