Published 2026-11-03 - Updated 2026-11-03 - By VaultForYou Editorial Team - Checked against each browser's help pages, November 2026 ## Quick answer Open `vivaldi://bookmarks` (Ctrl+B (⌘+B on a Mac) opens the Bookmarks panel): Vivaldi's full-page bookmark manager. Make folders, drag bookmarks between them, right-click a folder to sort by name, and use the search box to find anything. - **Manager:** `vivaldi://bookmarks` or Ctrl+B (⌘+B on a Mac) opens the Bookmarks panel - **Folders:** Right-click -> Add new folder, then drag bookmarks in - **Sort:** Right-click a folder -> Sort by name ## Organize bookmarks in Vivaldi 1. **Open the manager** Go to `vivaldi://bookmarks`, or press Ctrl+B (⌘+B on a Mac) opens the Bookmarks panel. 2. **Make folders** Right-click in the folder list (left) -> Add new folder. Nest folders by making one inside another. 3. **Move bookmarks** Drag bookmarks into folders; select several with Ctrl/⌘ or Shift first to move them together. 4. **Sort and search** Right-click a folder -> Sort by name. The search box at the top finds bookmarks by name or address across every folder. Menu labels change between versions of Vivaldi; the shortcut and the internal address `vivaldi://bookmarks` don't. ## A folder plan that holds up One folder per project or area, no deeper than two levels, and the Bookmarks bar folder kept to the ten or so pages you open daily. Put everything else under Other bookmarks; search finds it faster than browsing ever will. ## Duplicates Vivaldi has no built-in duplicate finder. Sort a folder by name and duplicates sit next to each other; delete the extras. Importing the same HTML file twice is the usual cause. ## Keep some bookmarks out of Vivaldi altogether No folder is private: the manager shows every one of them to whoever opens it. [Private Bookmarks](/private-bookmarks) is our free extension that saves pages into an encrypted vault on this computer: AES-256-GCM, a key derived from your password, no account, no sync and no network access. Saved pages never appear in the bookmark bar, in `vivaldi://bookmarks` or in a Vivaldi account, and the vault locks itself after a few minutes. > **Add Private Bookmarks to Vivaldi.** Free. Installs from the Chrome Web Store.

Ctrl+B (⌘+B on a Mac) opens the Bookmarks panel. Typing `vivaldi://bookmarks` in the address bar opens the same page. ### Can I sort bookmarks alphabetically? Yes. Right-click a folder in the manager and choose Sort by name. It sorts that folder, not its subfolders. ### How do I move a lot of bookmarks at once? In the manager, click the first, Shift-click the last, and drag the selection into a folder. ### Can I organize private bookmarks the same way? Private Bookmarks has its own folders, favorites and search inside Chrome's side panel, and its folder names are encrypted along with the bookmarks. ## Sources - [Vivaldi Help: Bookmark Bar](https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/bookmarks/bookmark-bar/) - [Vivaldi Help: Import and export bookmarks](https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/bookmarks/import-export-bookmarks/) ## Organize bookmarks in other browsers - [How to organize favorites in Microsoft Edge](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/edge) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on a Chromebook](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chromebook) - [How to organize bookmarks in Brave](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/brave) - [How to organize bookmarks in Opera](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/opera) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [How to use Chrome's Bookmark Manager](https://www.vaultforyou.app/blog/chrome-bookmark-manager) - [All browsers: organize bookmarks](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks) ## More for Vivaldi - [How to show the bookmark bar in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/show-bookmarks-bar/vivaldi) - [How to bookmark a page in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/add-bookmark/vivaldi) - [How to delete bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to export bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/export-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to import bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/import-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to find where bookmarks are stored in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/where-bookmarks-are-stored/vivaldi) - [How to restore lost bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/restore-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to edit bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/edit-bookmarks/vivaldi) --- Private Bookmarks by VaultForYou is a Chrome extension made by VaultForYou.
