# 1.4 BookMacster for One Browser

To set up BookMacster to manage the bookmarks of a single web browser, you will create a Bookmarkshelf document with that single web browser as a Client.

Follow the steps below. If you click a link for more detail, use the Back (◀) button in the toolbar to return here.

- Activate BookMacster.

- Create a Bookmarkshelf Document, switching ON the checkboxes for the browser whose bookmarks you wish to manage.

- If you have other bookmarks in other files, browsers or devices which you want to import and merge with what you have just imported, import those now and consolidate all of your bookmarks.

- Organize your bookmarks.

- Click in the menu: File > Export to all.

You have just manually organized your bookmarks and you can stop here.

But there’s more, if you want. BookMacster can keep your bookmarks in a web browser sorted automatically. It will watch for when you change bookmarks in the web browser, imports the content, sorts it, and export it. To enable this feature, continue…

- Set up a simple Agent.

- If you Paused agents during the previous step, click the Syncing button in the toolbar to Resume syncing.

- This time, click Export. Your initial export is very important, to make sure that the web browser and your Bookmarkshelf Document begin with the same bookmarks, that is, they begin in sync.

- Quit BookMacster. If you have set up an Agent, it will work silently. (If you leave the Bookmarkshelf window open, your Agent will still work, but it will draw a sheet over the window while it is working, to prevent a conflict between you and the Agent changing your bookmarks at the same time, which is annoying.)

- If desired, you may test your Agent.
