Hi Please could someone help me re-order my firefox toolbars. Previously I managed to arrange them in the order I prefer, but an update seems to have destroyed the order again, and I can no longer find the web page which explained how to do it. reading from the top, I would like to see: • Title bar • Menu bar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar • Tabs toolbar • Web content area

Instead I have • Title bar • Menu bar • Tabs toolbar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar (I even seem to have lost this now and don't know how to get it back!) • Web content area Thanks for any help that can be provided. Brox

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, Agentvirtuel. However this seems to be a much more complex job than I was expecting, and I will have to learn all sorts of new coding. That will take time and is not easy, so I won't be able to comment whether or not I find the solution for quite a while. For example, one is supposed to put a userChrome.css in the profile folder. Guess who doesn't have a Profile folder?. So now I must discover where that goes! I hope to report back in due course, but don't hold your breath! It's quite soul destroying how the "volunteer" coders have messed up Firefox.

If you wish to try

#TabsToolbar { order: 2 !important; }

Copy/paste the code into Notepad Save Type: All files userChrome.css

Create a chrome folder Move userChrome.css to your chrome folder

Go to your profile folder https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data#w_how-do-i-find-my-profile

Move your chrome folder to your profile folder

Go to Configuration Editor https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox Enter a search term toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets Double-click on the preference, to set its value to true

And restart Firefox

I can relate to your annoyance but no need to go overboard. You do have a profile - type about:support in the url bar>enter you'll find Profile Folder under Application Basics. css scripts are readily available on the web, you can start at github. Firefox coders are not volunteers and do not deserve your disparagement - put in for a refund of what you paid.
