The bookmark bar per Space in Shift Browser provides a dedicated, unique bookmark bar for every Space you create. This keeps bookmarks you save in one Space from appearing in another, helping you keep different workflows organized.
What is a “bookmark bar per Space” in Shift Browser?
In Shift Browser, each Space has its own bookmark bar.
This helps you stay focused because you're only looking at the links you need right now. Here’s what makes this feature special:
Individual bars: Each Space has its own unique set of links.
No crossover: A bookmark you save in "Work" won't clutter your "Personal" Space.
Total freedom: You can edit or delete a bookmark in one Space without affecting any others.
How to manage your Space bookmarks in Shift Browser
Managing your links is easy since Shift treats each Space like its own focused room. You're in total control of how you organize each workflow.
Switch Spaces: Click the Space icon in your sidebar to open a specific workflow.
Add your link: Click the star icon in the search bar or drag a site directly onto the bar.
Create folders: Right-click the bar to add folders. This is great for grouping projects or daily habits.
Move links: If you need a link in a different Space, just copy the URL and paste it into the new one.
If you don't see your bar, it's likely just hidden. You can fix this quickly. Open Quick Settings and click "Build your Browser" to toggle your bars on or off.
Frequently asked questions about Shift Browser bookmarks
Can I have a global bookmark bar?
Shift doesn't use a global bookmark bar. Bookmarks are kept separate by Space.
Can I duplicate bookmarks across Spaces?
While Shift keeps bars separate by default, you can use the Bookmark Manager to move things quickly. Open the Bookmark Manager in your one Space, copy the folder or links you want, then go to another Space within the Bookmark Manager and paste them in.
What happens if I delete a Space?
When you delete a Space, you also delete the bookmark bar attached to it. If you have links you want to save, make sure to move them first. You can also learn how to import and export bookmarks in Shift
