Rearrange bookmark widget?

[Bobby9]

Is there a way to change the order of the websites on the HTC widget?

As far as I've seen it simply put them in the order you add them.

Actually I think it's alphabetical, but yeah there is no way to change them as far as I know...

No it's not, that's why in mine Android Central is third in the list after Youtube and Jeep Forum, and accuweather is at the bottom. It's listed in the order you add them.

Yuck! You're right... I only have a couple there... they really need ti fix that :-/

And even if you rearrange the bookmarks in the browser and re-add the widget it's still in the order you added them

Is there a way to delete some of the bookmarks that were already in?

Being able to manage bookmarks should be a basic thing that is included. Nothing is ever that simple on a smartphone.

Eh you got to give them time. Android is only 18 months old, they have more important things to worry about than how the bookmarks widget behaves. I'm sure they will improve the functionality soon enough.

You have to do it from the app that stored them.

The easiest way to rearrange your bookmarks is to open each one (so they will be in your history) then delete the bookmark, then add them back to your bookmarks (open them using your history). As you add them back they will be add as the first bookmark so the one you want last should be added first. It may take a little bit of time if you have a lot of bookmarks but might be worth it if you want them in order.

There is a nice program called Bookmark Sort and Backup that will rearange the bookmarks, even in the Bookmarks widget..
