How does syncing of Chrome bookmarks to the Dolphin Browser work?
With introduction of the Garage API in Dolphin, CMarks can now integrate your Chrome bookmarks into Dolphin or Dolphin Beta.
There are - however - some limitations on how this integration is performed:

There are - however - some limitations on how this integration is performed:
- Due to restrictions in Dolphin, the integration can only be performed by you clicking on the Add-On and not during a normal CMarks sync. Basically, Dolphin has to be the one that initiates communication - it won't allow any third party app to start communicating first.
- To avoid accidentally removing any of your existing bookmarks or folders, the integrated bookmarks will be copied into a new folder called 'CMarks'. This is because Dolphin does not give access to attributes or tags on the integrated bookmarks so CMarks cannot tell which bookmarks it integrated and which were there originally and should be left alone.
- Dolphin automatically removes all bookmarks with duplicate urls except the first encountered (which includes any urls already in Dolphin).
- Folders are always sorted alphabetically at the top of each folder - this order is hard coded in Dolphin and can't be changed.
