How to migrate Firefox bookmarks with tags to Chrome?

6

2

Firefox exports HTML without tags, or else as a JSON file. Since Chrome doesn't do tagging, a workaround would be to put the tags in the title so that text is still searchable once imported to Chrome.

Is there an alternative way to get all my tags into the title within firefox, or using an online service or other tool?

In case you would like to see Google Chrome implement bookmark labeling / tagging, you can star the following issue: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17536

I just had the same problem and wrote a small tool that converts Firefox' JSON file to a chrome HTML file and puts all the tags into the title.

When I try to run this I get errors. Admittedly I'm no expert. Any chance of you providing a walk-through for how to use this? :) – Adam – 2015-09-09T18:25:19.397

Try Xmarks Sync to synchronize your bookmarks across multiple browsers and machines. It is available for Firfox, Chrome, Safari, etc. Hope this solves your problem.

2Xmarks syncs bookmarks between Firefox and Chrome, but the tags get left behind in Chrome, so it doesn't actually solve this problem. – Morgan May – 2015-11-12T19:17:22.103
