I want to have a bookmarks bar immediately underneath the URL bar, extending the length of the window, so I can have my bookmark folders in view at all times.

Also I don't understand the "Automatically add" button on this screen. It looked like something you were recommending, but then it said "Author not verified." If the author is not verified, why would you recommend it?

I tried the manual method described below, but when I clicked Edit in the menubar, there is no small box that opens. However, here is the information I was told to paste in the other box on this screen:

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible.

  • View > Toolbars
  • Right-click empty toolbar area

Use Toolbar Layout (Customize) to open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.

  • check that "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette into the Customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar setup
