Markers-safari-rename-0

In Safari as in many other web browsers, the markers offered to pin in the favorites bar or have them saved by default give us the ability to access a URL conveniently and quickly, however when we add these pages to our bookmarks as favorites, it means that if they have a very long heading title, the name of the bookmark to be saved will be exactly the same length, this would not be a problem if the We have them located in the bookmarks sidebar, but when we activate the favorites bar, these names may be "truncated", that is, they are shortened to a point, leaving them somewhat unreadable or with a meaning that we will not understand well, so we can changing the name and putting one with which to identify them well is the best we can do.

This can be done in different ways, but we are going to use one that is the fastest and most useful and that is instead of using the Bookmark Editor To make a change in the name of the bookmark, we will do it through the favorites bar using a little «trick».

To display the bookmarks or favorites bar, if it is not visible we will press CMD + Shift + B. Next we will select the marker that we want to change the name with the mouse, but with the particularity of leaving the button pressed until the option to edit the name appears, once done we will press enter to save it.

It is advisable to shorten the name as much as possible, being a good option keep page name, since many times if we identify it by another longer name, some accesses to bookmarks may be hidden, having to click on the arrow (at the end of the bar) to discover the others. This change will automatically sync across different system sessions in Safari.
