Interesting …

After Juri’s listmail I ran and did the same on my iMac … could it be that the Butler crashes I’ve had here were related? I can't remember when it was that I sent the last crash reports … and since January I just didn’t find the time to send new ones.

Curious now whether it will happen again.

Greetings,
Tom

Sorry, I should have remembered to ask about that; it's new with Mojave, and if not enabled, you'll run into other issues with some of Butler's other features. Glad you figured it out.

I went into the Security & Privacy settings and added Butler to the "Full 
Disk Access" applications list. After relaunching Butler, all Safari 
bookmarks are now available in the menu and as shortcuts.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried a hidden Safari item at first and didn't 
see any effect. I then put both the update caches and Safari Bookmarks in 
the main Butler menu and refreshed caches, but Butler is unable to find my 
bookmarks. Screenshot is attached. Could this be a file permissions issue 
that I can check or does Butler use an API to gain access to the bookmarks?

Sorry for the delay in replying; I wanted to check with Peter (our founder/programmer) as I don't do much with bookmarks in Butler. Here's what he said to check...

	1) You have to have an "External Bookmarks: Safari" smart item somewhere in your configuration -- if you don't want to access those bookmarks via menu, you can hide the smart item in "Hidden". 

	2) If you just added such a smart item, you might have to use an "Update Caches" control or quit and relaunch Butler to have them show up in your abbreviations window.

	3) Your "Enter Abbreviation…" control must have "Websites" checked in its "Results Filter" tab.

I'm quite sure I could use abbreviations to open my Safari bookmarks, but 
somehow that has stopped working. I'm not sure if it's related to Mojave or 
a recent Butler update. I could check on my iMac at home to see how it is 
behaving (it's still running High Sierra), if that helps.
