It is now stored at ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks This patch updates default location to the new one, and adds a fallback which will load the old bookmarks. A watch is set on the new file location, not the legacy location. In this way the new file always overrides the legacy file even if the new file doesn't exist at startup. This should mimic the new gtk behaviour.

As some default places are already put in the new bookmark, legacy bookmark is ignored by Thunar and xfce4-places-plugin-1.6.0. This command corrected my issue: cd ~/.config/gtk-3.0 cp ~/.gtk-bookmarks bookmarks Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1280641/comments/13 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2014-06-13T12:58:07+00:00 Alistair Buxton wrote: There is nothing we at Xfce can do about that. It happens because Gtk3 itself creates the new file as soon as you open any file requester. The only thing we can do is make sure Xfce is using the same file as Gtk, but that is already too late for many users. Gtk does not provide any API to query the correct bookmarks location, and according to the developers, bookmarks are an entirely private API which should not be used by any software (except Nautilus, because apparently that is special).

I just noticed it stops working after an update and I decided to correct it myself today, as following updates didn't seem to fix it automagically. My feeling is that the migration process should have been handled automatically at some point. As the upgrade worked to upgrade xfce4 -places-plugin and thunar, the softwares I'm using which seem to depend this bookmark file. Especially if the bookmarks file format is exactly the same. I just posted here because I found this ticket by searching .gtk-bookmarks. Your first reply helped me to fix my issue. I hope it can help someone else. Thunar seems also to have lost its "send to" bookmark right click feature… (Shortcuts Pane ?) That how I created my bookmark at first. But it's probably another issue.

Gtk3 migrated you years ago without you knowing about it. Since then you have had two bookmark files with different contents. The only effect you would see is that file requesters would show different bookmarks to thunar. There is nothing Xfce can do about this because we have no way of knowing which one you want to delete and which one you want to keep, in order to bring them in sync.
