How to set the sharing default as private when marking bookmarks using Delicious Bookmarks Extension in Chrome

- First of all we need to find how where the files related to the extension are stored.

To do that enter

chrome://extensions/

in the Chrome address bar. If the Developer mode is not expanded, expand it by clicking on “+” in front of “Developer mode” on top-right.
Scroll down to “Delicious Bookmarks Extension (Beta)” and copy the ID.  In this case, the ID was lnejbeiilmbliffhdepeobjemekgdnok

The folder for the Delicious extension will be named lnejbeiilmbliffhdepeobjemekgdnok.

For my case, this folder was found in

C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\

- Edit the file that create the pop-up window when the “TAG” icon of this extension is clicked in Chrome.

C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions
\lnejbeiilmbliffhdepeobjemekgdnok\ 0.998_0\popup.html
( extra space was added in front of 0.998_0\popup.html. Remove it if you are copying the link. I had to add it because wordpress eliminates the character combination of ‘\’ and ’0′ )

At the time of writing this post, the version of the extension was 0.998_0.

Original code:

<div class="remember">
<input type="checkbox" id="share" name="share" value="no" >
<label for="share">Mark as private</label>
</div>

Editted code:

<div>
<input type="checkbox" id="share" name="share" value="no" 
 checked="yes" >
<label for="share">Mark as private</label>
</div>

Save the file.

That’s it! Now on, when the “TAG” icon is hit, you will see the check-box labeled “Mark as private” always marked.
