I am unable to search for Firefox bookmarks in KRunner.
It works with Konqueror and Falkon (but I don’t want to use these browsers). I find out the browser has to be set as the default browser for the feature to work. But it doesn’t work with Firefox.
This functionality isn’t natively supported in KRunner. Konqueror and Falkon are supported because they are programs made by KDE (and so have a relatively good integration with KDE Plasma). Firefox, however, doesn’t supply the necessary things to KRunner (or KRunner can’t get the necessary things from Firefox, depending on how you want to see it).
There was (once) a plugin to get Firefox Bookmarks in KRunner, and it is still listed under System Settings > Search (in the workspaces category) > Plasma Search > Get New Plugins (top right). However, it isn’t maintained and (at least on my system) it fails to install.
If that plugin works on your system, then it’s great! If it doesn’t, that’s not so great…
Firefox 147 changed its config locations from ~/.mozilla/firefox to ~/.config/mozilla/firefox to follow the XDG spec. See h**ps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259356 (sorry my profile is too young, I’m not allowed to post links yet).
Ah no I didn’t see that. I found it from seeing the error message “No default firefox profile found” in KJournald and then researching (with AI help) where that comes from, because I had some Firefox profile related issues earlier and was curious if something was still broken.
But that’s perfect, I was about to check if a proper bug report already exists and ask if I should create one.
