Firefox supportforum

Hi, I use a PC under W7.

with FF88, the zone of the activated/unused tabs was above the screen, below the listed tabs bar (like in the snapshot).

With FF89, this zone is now empty (background in blue in the snapshot) and only the active tab appears below the window (on the right down in the snapshot for the current tab).

It makes FF simply unusable ! Need your help to come back to a normal situation : all tabs in the blue bar where they were.

thanks a lot for your help. Regards, Philippe

Hello, I would like to use the search function in the tab again. How can I adjust this? At the moment it is so that when you enter it it appears right above in the link line (see picture). I would like it to be in the search below, directly in the tab. Before version 88 this was possible. Why was it removed?

hallo, ich möchte wieder im Tab die Suchfunktion nutzen. Wie kann ich dies einstellen? Zur Zeit ist es so, daß bei einer Eingabe es gleich oben in der Linkzeile erscheint (siehe Bild) Dabei möchte ich es unten in der Suche, direkt im Tab haben. Vor Version 88 war das möglich. Warum wurde es entfernt?

I would like to set the tabs to display below the address bar in Firefox 89 64bit. I believe the setting is in about:config but I can't find it. Firefox does this every so often and I wish they would just have a button to say tabs on top, or tabs below address bar.

I just updated to Firefox version 89, and now open tabs appear at the bottom of the page (where the search box would be). Opening multiple windows shows all of them at the bottom. Is there a way to get them back to the top under the Bookmark Toolbar where they belong. I can't believe this is something done on purpose ... It's certainly not an improvement. THANKS!

In version 89 running on windows there is no "options" setting in the three bar file. Previously I had things running so that if I opened a new window it came up with my chossen browser (Startpage). Now if I do that it opens a new tab instead of a window and does so in Firefox. So then I try to find "options" but its not there. So I go to settings and it offers me an option to open in tabs instead of new windows. Implication is that the default is a new window. SO I make sure thats not ticked and I close firefox and reopen it. No difference. Then I come at it the other way ie to tell the tab to despay my home page but it wont let me do that either. Choices there are only a blank page or (yes you guessed it) Firefox. All help gratefully recieved.

My firefox installed a new update, 89, and now my tabs are missing, except that the active tab is floating down at the center bottom of the screen. i can still navigate with keyboard shortcuts, but i don't know how many i have open, what they are, and personally DO NOT like navigating with shortcuts if i don't have to.

why is it necessary to keep messing with tabs? weren't they just fine below the address bar back in the day? How is ruining the user experience worth whatever was even trying to be done here?

image is how my firefox looks right now

Since the last update I no longer see the website icons on the tab when it plays audio (twitch, youtube etc.), would love to have back the icons again and the sound indicator on the right side of the tab. I don't want to deactivate the indicator since I use it fairly regularly.

After the latest update(Version 89), the big firefox logo is appearing in my Home Tab. How can I disable it? I didn't have it last night either when I had the older version.

Hi guys.

I can't characterize websites because of the favicon overlaid by the speaker symbol (directly in the YouTube tab).

Is there a way to display the speaker symbol and the favicon at the same time? Or not display the speaker symbol at all, because it is important for me to know which website is in the TAB. I don't need to see the speaker, but the favicon of the website. See attached screenshot.

Of course, the speaker icon only appears when audio is active on a particular website (for example, this applies to a YouTube website).

Thanks.

when i type a search into my google search on a new tab, the writing jumps into the web browser at the top , its so annoying , any help will be appreciated ...Thanks

Hello,

I've searched without luck long enough, time to ask You. Is there a way for Firefox 89+ to restore tabs to be below adress bar? Previous userChrome.css solutions puts tabs now on bottom of screen and makes them invisible. Common problem wich Mozilla stuff is blind at...

Tabs in 89 have moved to the bottom of the screen obscuring web page content. How can i move them to the top where they were? I am not a programmer, so a simple solution would be helpful.

Could someone please provide userChrome.css which puts the tabs back below the Address Bar in Firefox 89.0?

All the other solutions I've found end up putting the tabs at the bottom of the window where the status bar is. It becomes translucent and the + button cannot be found.

I had one userChrome.css which did put the tabs below; however, the whole top of the browser went to the bottom of the screen so the Menu Bar, Address Bar, and then the Tabs appeared below the page being viewed.

Has anyone found a version that keeps the status quo but just moves the tabs to where they should be?

Thanks.

Is there any chance to see old GUI look again on next update? Or at least an option to revert its look to old version? Personally I don't like the new TAB buttons located on top. I think its annoying and wasting the space for exactly nothing..

Sorry to rub salt into old wounds but this quote from a 2014 support post expresses my feelings exactly:

"What's the point of a 'tab' if there's no tab? Text floating around at the top of the page is not a tab."

Firefox 89.0 recently installed itself. First of all, my option to open all tabs when restarting is not on. I reloaded all tabs from History. The tabs started opening on the bottom of the screen. Why???

Now I have only one tab visible. I can only get to one tab. I feel like I'm back in the days of Netscape Navigator. How do I get the old look back?

Is there a way to change back the look of the tabs to the way they looked before the 89.0 update? I have a hard time to see what tab is active, it was so easy before the update.

I used to have "three dots" in the url location that would allow me to forward urls to others. Those "3 dots" are no longer available for me to forward/send locations to others. What can I do?
